For what should be a professional instructional video, I find this not so professional. 1st off Glock sights are removed left to right and installed right to left , that’s one reason why you couldn’t get the sight to go in. It’s not the same throughout.
You can install any direction actually. There is no specific way. It will work with either side. It’s just a recommendation to install right to left and vise versa.
Sure hope you don't need to adjust those sights! Driving in the rear sight seems to include they won't move. I never use red Loctite(R) if I ever think I will need to remove something later.
You can place the slide completely on the table when installing the sight. No need to have the end hanging over the edge of the table when installing the sight. Use two clamps, too. Finally, there is a Loctite that is made to wick into threads and tight fittings. I believe it's the green Loctite. Don't recall the product number.
Just got mine in the mail today, can't wait to get them on and put some rounds through them at 15 and 25 yard's to see if I can actually be on target unlike my cheap sights I just removed!
Love mine! Easy to install: didn't even have to file! Didn't waste any ammo while testing them ;) Glad I listened to professional advice and chose XS Big Dots!

so many bad advises on that video. Loctite on the slide is the most silly thing I have ever seen
How so?
minimalist sights maximum effort to install GOOOODAAAAMN
They didnt give tools -__- ruined my original sight just to take it out
May be good info, but that stupid music makes it hard to watch
Red Loctite? Seems like that is a good idea only if you never want to adjust or remove the sights.
Wow. You really like to go nuts w that lock tight.
Maybe clean out all that crap in your dove tail before you go file down your sight. 👍

Loctite is anaerobic. It ONLY cures in the absence of air. It's not superglue. Cant afford a decent sight pusher?
How do you know your rear sight is properly aligned without shooting a group to verify?
Tough crowd. Have to agree with most of the comments, though.
If the rear sights are properly cut you shouldn’t need to put lock tight on it
Yea, it seems like they're telling customers that they can't manufacture to the correct tolerances.
I just bought these, they seem nice but why doesn't the rear have a screw like your other ones? Is it for cost?
What you going to screw the rear sight into?
@@jstud999into the dove tail, like other rear sights that have set screws. Truglo does it for their sights. I have their fiber optics on my G45
I didn't shave it down. I used a sight pusher tool and pushed it in. Will that damage my slide?
You did it the right way. Never file 🤦♂️. The oem ones won’t fit now.
@@ailpaysthebills Oem will fit fine. You file the sight, not the slide itself. Filing the sight won't change how OEM sights fit whatsoever...
I loved mine at first and then after a couple of months they did not glow anymore. I’m going back to white paint on the front sight.
Is red loctite the correct one for me to use. Or should I use blue?
The manufacturer just told you exactly what to use in the video.
greet
I have to check these ones out
So you don't file the side's of the sight dovetail to make it fit? You just file the bottom?
I didn’t file anything … Just used a wood dowel and a hammer. Went it just fine. I haven’t shot them yet but things went together just fine.
Should not have to file anything
😂
You filed yours to go 2/3 the way in

@@ShunbunNoHi Right. That's why I didn't mention it.
@@johngranato2673 don't know why they didn't mention that, so most people know.
I think that it probably so he and use hands knuckles fingers below the table level. It’s preference.
You should 100% not have to use glue or lock tight on anything but threads. Get different sights. Rear sights should be left right ADJUSTABLE.
The stock glock sights are not adjustable
I love my Xs big dot suppressor sights on my glock 19 gen 4.
Just got mine in the mail today, can't wait to get them on and put some rounds through them at 15 and 25 yard's to see if I can actually be on target unlike my cheap sights I just removed!
Comes with the Finnish already worn off the corners so you don’t have to do it yourself! Cool!
🤣😂
Why not use a sight pusher tool?
You can if you'd like! We just wanted to show a budget option for folks who don't have access to a sight pusher or don't want to purchase one.

Why d riding so hard
