GunPro Delta One sights

Was doing my morning round of websites I like to frequent and saw this on TFB.

I am extremely interested in trying these! Seems like a good concept and I'm loving the idea of having a more open sight picture!
Hopefully these will trickle into canada within the next year or two.

I don't know. The alignment of the tip of the rear sight with the front v-notch means you're trying to quickly align two very small points. I'm guessing that these will be very tough to achieve good, consistent elevation with. I think it's the type of thing that looks good in computer animation but fails in real life. It reminds me a bit of the Steyr trapezoidal sights that I found precise but slow to align. Although I've not tried them, XS Big Dot sights seem to be a better execution of the same idea.

I agree with their assessment of three dot sights—I'm not a huge fan. I prefer a dot (or fibre optic) on the front sight and plain back rear. I find it just as quick close in but still accurate enough for longer shots when needed.
