Frequently Asked Questions
Will these sights fit both the standard HK USP and the USP Compact?
No — the Meprolight HK701973 is designed specifically for the HK USP Compact. The USP full-size uses different sight dimensions, so be sure to verify your pistol model before purchasing. Using sights designed for the wrong variant can result in an improper fit and compromised accuracy.
How long will the tritium illumination last?
Meprolight's tritium vials have a half-life of approximately 12 years, and Meprolight backs them with a 12-year warranty on the tritium illumination. Over time the glow will gradually dim, but the sights will remain functional as standard iron sights well beyond that period.
Can I install these night sights myself, or do I need a gunsmith?
While some experienced shooters install night sights at home using a sight pusher tool, Meprolight and most firearms professionals recommend having a qualified gunsmith perform the installation. This ensures the sights are seated correctly, torqued to spec, and zeroed properly — protecting both your investment and your accuracy.
