Old style night sight options?

[Elkins45]

Any options for night sights on a pre-2004 P9 besides the $120 XS big dot that Kahr is selling and the $120 Dawson Precision sets?

i think my originals are Meprolights, so relamping probably isn't an option.

Kahr doesn't sell the Trijicons any longer? I remember that they were less expensive when I bought them and they've served me well. I'd double check your originals. The Trijicons were more common than Meprolights and they can be re-lamped. In fact, when I checked Meprolight, they didn't even make sights that fit the old slides.

P.S. those XS Big Dots and Dawson Precision are good stuff.

P.S.S. You might want to call and see if these are still available. http://www.kahr.com/Sights/Kahr-Old-StyleTrijicon-Night-Sights-Set.asp

I tried. When you add them to your cart they show up at $0 and then in a couple of seconds you get a pop up saying your cart is empty.

same here; You might want to make a call...you could get lucky. And definitely check your current sights. If they are Trijicon, you should be able to get them re-lamped.

My current ones are 12 years old. I know that's supposed to be the spoilage date because it's one half-life but they are actually still pretty bright. I guess what I'm saying is that they don't look like they are $120 worth of dim, especially when the gun also has a Crimson Trace trigger guard laser.

i just might give them a call and see if they are planning to restock the Trijicons.

Seems reasonable. Did you see Wynn's post about the re-lamping? Check post #4. Did you confirm your current sights' brand?

I don't know how to determine if these are Trijicon or Meprolight (apologies for the bad cellphone pix):
