Frequently Asked Questions
Will these sights fit my Glock 42 without any modifications?
Yes. The HiViz LiteWave H3 sights are specifically designed to fit the Glock 42 and use standard Glock sight dimensions, so they can be installed using a common sight pusher tool. No permanent modifications or gunsmithing are required, making them a straightforward upgrade for most owners.
How long does the tritium illumination last?
Tritium has a half-life of approximately 12 years, meaning you can expect useful illumination for roughly 10–12 years before the glow begins to noticeably diminish. During this time, the LiteWave Litepipe technology also enhances brightness in daylight and low-light conditions, making these sights effective around the clock.
Why does the front sight have a white ring instead of just tritium?
The white ring surrounding the green tritium vial on the front sight serves as a daytime aiming aid, drawing your eye quickly to the front sight post even in bright conditions where tritium alone is less visible. This combination ensures fast target acquisition whether you're shooting in sunlight, indoors, or in complete darkness.
