I am looking for a taller (not standard) Glock 17 front sight (no need for rear) but I can't find it anywhere. I think there are somewhere selling combo but is there just a front one? If I have to buy a combo which set is good?
Anyone know (in Canada) where I can buy just a tall front Glock 17 sight?

do you have a preference between regular, dot or night sights? and how tall?
I have trijicon suppressor height night sights on one of my 17's but I had to buy the kit, they were in stock at my range at the time. you can possibly find taller front sight off a Glock 19 with threaded barrel, they come with taller sights but the font has a yellow dot on it. Maybe a Glock dealer would have them on can order one in for you, or possibly find someone that took them off and willing to sell
Warren tactical makes a pretty big selection of front sights in different heights but other then ordering from the US Im not sure who would have them in Canada

Don't need night sight. I am basically trying to do co-witness on the non-MOS G17 with the Vortext Venom on a 3rd party mount (from Outer Impact) or as a back up in case the red dot dies. It doesn't have to be full co-witness but more like serve as a reference point for easier target acquiring
Im with you on that, I have a RMR on one of my 17's but it has a pocket in the slide so I dont really need a higher front sight. I just use it as a reference
It limits your options a little, because most taller front sights are either night sights or fiber optic insert. The glock sight on the 19 threaded barrel version is taller with a yellow dot, and Warren makes some that are plain with serrations

Just wondering if a suppressor height sight would be too tall or not?
