Frequently Asked Questions
Do these night sights need to be charged with a flashlight or UV light to glow?
No. Truglo Brite-Site Tritium sights use self-luminous tritium gas vials that produce their own continuous glow without any external light source, UV charging, or batteries. As a radioactive isotope, tritium emits a steady, safe green glow 24 hours a day for approximately 12 years before the brightness begins to fade noticeably.
Will these sights fit my Glock 43X or Glock 48?
These sights are specifically designed and sized for the Glock 42 and Glock 43 models. While the Glock 43X and 48 share some similarities, their slide dimensions and sight cuts may differ. We recommend verifying compatibility with your specific model before ordering, or contacting Truglo directly to confirm fitment for those variants.
Can I install Truglo Brite-Site sights myself, or do I need a gunsmith?
Glock sight installation requires a sight pusher tool to safely remove the factory rear sight and press in the new one without damaging the slide. While experienced DIY enthusiasts with the proper tools can perform the swap, we strongly recommend professional installation by a qualified gunsmith to ensure correct fit, torque, and zero — especially on a carry firearm where reliability is critical.
