While these sights do glow brilliantly and installed with very little trouble at all, I have found a problem with this particular design in all three of the H&K USP Tactical .45s I''ve installed these on. The rear sight, bottomed-out as far as its height-adjustment screw will take it, still isn''t far enough to get a proper sight alignment at 25 yards. Either the front sight needs to be higher (preferable, of course), or that rear sight needs to be on a taller base. The factory sights had lots of adjustment room in them, and all three of them shot pretty much to point-of-aim at 25 yards with a few different 230-grain rounds. But these Meprolights require the shooter to adjust his/her sight picture in order to make the things work. Of all of the Meprolight night sights I''ve installed, these are the only ones that have been a problem. That rear sight needs to be able to click down about half a dozen more ticks than it''s able to do in order for things to line up properly.

I was a little worried about accuracy when I ordered these sights for my .45 USP Tactical full size, based on one of only a few customer reviews (the others were good reviews). But since it was the only available night sight I tried it and had my gunsmith install it. Since the factory target sights were so accurate out of the box, he told me he would measure exactly the position of the tops of the factory sights and install the new ones accordingly. At the range the meprolight sights were dead-on with no need even to adjust. I hope this helps anyone hesitant to order them. The three dots really help quick target acquisition and make this awesomely accurate and reliable gun more combat shooting-friendly

I purchased a set for my glock 36. The front sight screw does not allow the barrel to seat properly, causing the the slide not to be able to be reattched. I have contacted the company in regards to the issue because they advertise these sights as all glock 45's. Not true. I had to buy a competitor's front site, costing another $42. If you have a glock 36, go with the Ameriglo tritium, brighter, and made specifically for the model of your gun.

It's almost impossible to find night sights for this firearm, and finding a set that will clear the top of most available suppressors for this particular pistol is even harder. I've been using a set of adjustable Meprolights on the first H&K USP .45 Tactical I bought several years ago with absolute satisfaction--great accuracy and equally great visibility, and now I'm getting ready to buy another set for a twin pistol that I plan to get next week.
