I have tried several different types of sights before finally putting Sevigny's competition sights on my G34. I really love them. Shot an IDPA practice match last night indoors. BTY I emailed David Sevigny asking about his sights and he replied the same day. Here is a quote from his email:

To answer your question directly, I've found the plain black sight picture
offers the "cleanest" look for top speed and accuracy.

The rear sight surface is matted and smooth, with no distracting undercuts or
serrations. The front sight has serrations of 70 LPI so the contrast
between front and rear surface texture draws your attention to the front.
Bottom line....All Sevigny sights offer the best sight picture for speed and
accuracy and allow you to see what is important.....wide parallel light bars
for horizontal precision, and top flats that are longer than the front
sight top flat for vertical precision.

I have the Carry set on 3 guns and like them. With my eyes aging faster than I like, the wide notch really helps me focus on the blade. These sights have actually prompted me to open the notch up on most of my guns.

Human eyes see with a combination of two receptor cells: Rods & Cones.

Rods are sensitive to contrast and shadow--and quick movement.

Cones are stimulated by color.

Night vision employs the rods more than the cones, due to the lack of discernible colors. Rod based vision is also a tad quicker, as the brain interprets it faster. This vision improves greatly with practice.

The all black sight picture, done right, employs the faster rod vision. It is the first choice of many a hot-shot shooter.

The popular fiber optic and illuminated night sights, activate the cones. This is a tad slower, but really "pops" for a lot of people, and in near total darkness, offers the only sight picture. This vision also responds to practice, but remains a tad slower.

FWIW: I just wanted to add that I really like the Dawson Precision Adj Fiber Optic sights I got from CGR. These seem to employ the best of both rods and cones--at least for me. That front FO sight really "pops" in that serrated, matte black rear adjustable sight!
