Trijicon Bright & Tough Night Sight Set - Green Front/Rear for Glock 42

The Trijicon Bright & Tough Night Sight Set for Glock 42 brings reliable target acquisition to any light condition. This three-dot tritium night sight set pairs a green front lamp with a green rear lamp, letting you pick up your sight picture whether you're shooting in full daylight or near-total darkness. The tritium phosphor-filled lamps glow without batteries, making these sights dependable backup iron sights for defensive carry, range work, or any situation where speed and clarity matter.

Built tough for the Glock 42's compact slide, these night sights feature protective aluminum sleeves with silicone rubber cushioning to handle the recoil and wear that come with regular shooting. The sapphire jewel technology distributes light evenly across the sight picture, so you get a crisp sight picture in low light without sacrificing day-light visibility. The green lamps are a clean alternative to yellow, offering a distinct visual signature that works well in tactical or defensive contexts.

If you run a suppressor or red-dot optic on your Glock 42, these sights are engineered to clear both, thanks to their suppressor/optic-height profile. They also function as reliable backup iron sights behind a mounted optic, giving you a complete aiming solution no matter what goes wrong downrange. Whether you're a defensive shooter, competitive pistol enthusiast, or someone who wants better night-fire capability on a compact EDC piece, tritium night sights are a field-proven upgrade that doesn't require maintenance or battery swaps.
