Hi,

What is the (or a) commonly preferred pistol sight for IDPA enthusiasts?

The night sights on my pistol are designed to cover the target with the front dot. I don't like this sight bc I must cover the target and years of habit lead me to shoot low when using the iron sight blade and notch. In low light I'd be using a laser on my SD pistol anyway.

I looked at this Sure Sight but note they are backordered. Anyone use these? R they still in business?
Also the XS seems popular but also implies you cover target with the big dot.

I know IDPA is intended for use of stock gear, but are there popular sight choices given this?

Thx
