Just bought a glock 43

I love this gun, I could not jam it with five different types of ammo in all kinds of
Shooting positions. However, not crazy about the sights.
Any suggestions?
Thank you my friends
Dan
Stock sights are very accurate, however I am retired and the target
Is hard to initially aquire due to the sights

I've found these to work exceptionally well on my 43:

Ameriglo has several options for the 43. You can also use a code on their website to receive a small discount.

i love that gun. It is my Every Day Carry. I actually like the Glock sights although it is my only Glock. I shot it better than my M&P40 which prompted me to get rid of my M&P40.

Awesome gun, when I was a bit younger the sights would have been
Perfect. Now I need a little more standout

I recommend a Talon rubber grip. Awesome texture without any bulk. Looks great too. Use coupon code "CalGuns15" for 15% off the $17.99 price http://talongungrips.com/images/deta...00-Rubber2.jpg

For sights I'd go with Trijicons HD night sights with a photo luminous yellow or orange ring around the front.

I ordered mine with Glock night sights, and I'm really happy. I have to turn it sideways on my dresser at night because they are so bright. I like it completely dark so they are bright enough to really bother me.

I had Ameriglos on my G42, so I wouldn't have a problem at all with them either.

I have a G 42 that I love to carry or shoot so was anxious to purchase a G 43 when they came out. Rarely do I sell or trade my firearms but I was so disappointed in the G 43 it was traded for a Sig P 238 and a dozen mags. The pistol did not point well for me, was little easier to conceal than my G19 and the felt recoil on my arthritic hands was objectionable. My Sig P 938, S&W Shield, R 51 and SCCY 2 as well as Commander and full size pistols are much easier pistols for me to shoot.
Others swear by the G 43.... I do not, but that is only one opinion.

When I comes to night sights go with the best.
Trijicon.
I have a set on my G26 and after 6 years no issues and they look like small LED lights in the dark.
