Trijicon vs. Heinie vs. Fiber Optic

[Jude3]

On all my LE duty weapons I have always used Trijicon night sights. However, I have heard the Heinie Straight 8 Slant Pro night sights are better because your eye picks up the vertical alignment faster than the horizontal alignment.

Has anyone used both and which did you prefer? I would appreciate anyone's input, especially fellow LEO's?

How about any LEO's who have used fiber optic sights (front only, front & rear etc.) in a lower light setting i.e. night/graveyard shift? Obviously they wouldn't perform as well as tritium in total darkness, but how much ambient light is needed to really see the fiber optic?

The big advantage to Heinie is the dimensions of the sights allow you to pick them up much faster in daylight (the dots are not really used in light). In low light I find the vertical system faster as well.

I would avoid rear fiber optic sights, the rears make them very busy and that tends to slow people down. Front FO is really just a personal preference. They are great when shooting against a dark background but aiming with the dot also leads to a bit of sloppyness vs aiming with the sight. SO it really comes down to your preference and situation for FO, like tritium sights, there is no right or wrong for everyone.
