The stock sights on the G22 are not working well for me, has anyone tried the hi-viz sights? I kinda like the green ones, would appreciate opinions before ordering :)
 
Hi Viz sights are great. Make sure you have some FO filaments handy.
One tip, and I know it's a personal preference, get a red front post and blacked out rears. If you get the green tritium rears and the red FO front, the sight picture gets very confusing especially if you already have eyesight issues.
The hi viz red front/ black rear combo is very easy to see quickly for sport shooting.
Also, when you have 3 green glows, it also makes quick acquisition difficult. Like I said, personal preference may vary!
Nice gun btw!
 
I have had them on my Glocks(as well as others) since '05/06. I prefer the red front with green rears, all FO, no tritium. They work exceptionally well, especially on aging eyes. I have other types as well but I am very pleased with the HiViz units.

That's a good point, my brother has the cz shadow and it has the red front sight, it aims really easy. Do the filaments break easy, is that ehy you recommend extras?
 
I just took my M&P9 and M&P22 to the range after installing Hi Viz front sights on them. They made seeing the front sight in an indoor range MUCH Easier. I also put it into my AR's front flip up sight. Nit took some modification to fit the sight but it was also worth it.
