Used by the U.S Military, Federal, state and local law enforcement, search and rescue units and an array of commercial businesses, AmeriGlo is the world leader in the field of tritium night sights.
Characterized by the complete absence of any power supply, batteries, thermal image or electrical connection, AmeriGlo provides light sources that are 100% reliable, providing up to 12 years of usable light under all weather conditions.
AmeriGlo night sights utilize the traditional 3-dot aiming system, which requires no transition from day to night use, providing clear and accurate target acquisition in normal and low light conditions. AmeriGlo sights are easy to install, replacing factory sights and are made to factory-quality stature for precise and quick aiming. AmeriGlo night sights fit a wide array of handguns and are available in a variety of configurations.
What is Tritium? Tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. It is an odorless, tasteless, colorless gas that reacts with the human body in the same manner as natural hydrogen. Beta rays from the tritium hit phosphors to create the glow you see. Tritium has a half-life of 12.5 years, which means that in that time the lamp will be half as bright as it originally was.
Can you install AmeriGlo sights on my weapon? No, we do not do installs of any kind. Please contact your local gunsmith for installation of your new AmeriGlo sights.
Do you offer different colored AmeriGlo sights? Yes, some AmeriGlo sights are offered in your choice of yellow or green lamps in the rear sight only on select models. The front sight is always green because it is the brightest and longest lasting of the colored tritium. It is also the color with the most contrast from muzzle flash.
The warranty on my night sights has expired. Can I get them recharged? Tritium can not be 'recharged'. A new set AmeriGlo sights would need to be purchased.
I do not see my model gun on your product list. Do you carry AmeriGlo sights for it? If your gun is not listed, please contact our customer service at 800-518-3808, as we may offer sights by a manufacturer other than AmeriGlo that fit your firearm.
