I prefer Trijicon HDs, they seem to be slightly brighter. And I had a set of mepros go bad on me after only 7 months...

Trijicons, however, are usually a good but more expensive.

I just had new Siglite sights put on my P220 and IIRC, they're made by Meprolight.

I also swapped out the factory fiber optic sight that I didn't care for on my Springfield XDS for Meprolight, but I only bought Meprolight because I got a good deal installed.

I'd recommend Meprolight because I like them fine on these two pistols, but I don't know that there's much difference between them and Trijicon.

Both Glocks I owned wore Trijicons and I liked them fine too.

I have both Mepros and Trijicons on my pistols. In general the Mepros were a bit brighter and the Trijicons a bit more expensive. The one big area where they differ is customer service. I've had a few questions on both maker's sights and never could get a reply from Meprolight. Trijicon answers promptly and was quite helpful. So if the price difference is not too great I try to buy Trijicon. Good luck.
