The AmeriGlo GL481 optic-compatible Glock sight set puts iron sights back in play for shooters running mounted optics. These aren't your duty-gun sights—they're purpose-built to coexist with reflex sights, red dots, and scopes on the slide, so you've got a failsafe if your glass goes down or the battery dies. The tall 2XL front sight clears most common optic housings, and the green tritium front paired with a black rear gives you a bright, high-contrast sight picture in daylight and low light alike.
AmeriGlo's tritium tubes glow without batteries, so you're never caught without a sight picture after dark. The green front tritium pairs with a clean black rear to create a sharp aiming reference—green on black is easier on the eyes and faster to pick up than traditional white outlines in most conditions. Whether you're prepping a carry gun with a mounted red dot, setting up a duty-station Glock, or building a home-defense pistol with a backup sight plan, these are made for Glock slides and built to take hard use.
Installation requires standard Glock armorer-level work, so plan accordingly if you're not comfortable drifting sights yourself. Once in place, these sights are low-profile enough to coexist with optics without creating odd sight geometry or interference—a real advantage if your main sight picture goes out of commission and you need to default to iron sights quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these sights work with a red dot or reflex sight mounted on my Glock?
Yes. The GL481 is specifically designed as an optic-compatible sight set. The 2XL tall front sight is engineered to clear most common optic housings so the sights remain accessible as a backup if your mounted optic fails or the battery dies.
What Glock models are these sights compatible with?
The GL481 is engineered for Glock pistols. For specific slide models or generations, verify compatibility with AmeriGlo or your Glock's documentation before purchase.
Do the tritium sights require batteries?
No. Tritium is self-illuminating, meaning the sights glow passively in the dark without any power source. They'll work in low light indefinitely without battery changes.
Will I need a gunsmith to install these?
Installing Glock sights requires drifting the front and rear sights out and in, which is armorer-level work. If you're not comfortable with this procedure, a gunsmith or qualified armorer can handle the installation.
