Novel idea!
Opinions please.
They must be fast, but are they accurate?
Do you think that they will be durable?

They're sort of a rip off of these, which were developed by a GT member:

I've read good things and I'd like to try a gun so equipped! :wavey:

It looks like they have been improved upon.
I would love to try them too.
Before I lay out $100, I want so more info.
I will post in the L/E section.

Good luck in getting a pair of suresights. From what I've heard from others here, they are always out of stock and haven't made any in awhile.

As promised yesterday, this is thee email that describes some of the improvements
that we've implemented into the newly redesigned SureSight.

Myself, along with a very creative team of engineers have been hard at work on completing the design for the new model of SureSight. We have developed some pretty ingenious innovations that will help you get even more out of our sights. In fact, we've got several more patents pending for this new design.

Specifically, the new model SureSight that we're about to release will address four key issues people have had with past models of SureSight. They are:

1) Easier to install. Unlike previous iterations of SureSight, the new model will be substantially easier to install. The rear sight will utilize a set screw, and will be easier to slip into the dovetail without too much filing.

2) Adjustable. For the first time, SureSight will feature an adjustable apparatus. Since these sights are primarily intended for self defense and lawful carry, we had to design our own rugged system for adjusting the sights. What we've come up with is both simple and effective. Our design is strong, and while the rear sight is adjustable for elevation, the rear sight is still more than strong enough to be used to cycle the slide on one's belt or boot in "wounded shooter drills". Another advantage of an adjustable design is that you can transfer the sights within models. In other words, if you have a 9mm handgun with our sights, and you'd like to switch them to the same brand handgun but in .45 caliber, you can now do so. Once the install is complete, you simply adjust the rear sight as needed and assure zero.

3) Plastic inserts. While we've had a very low failure rate for our yellow coating chipping off our sights, we still weren't satisfied. We wanted something stronger. After a lot of engineering research and development, we have finalized a design for fluorescent plastic inserts to replace our current silk-screened coating. The plastic resin we've selected is super-tough--it's used in the most high-end military sunglasses as well as some automotive applications.

4) Tritium. This has been the primary hold up for the re-release of our sights. At this point, I'd say we are 99% sure that this is going to work very well. I'm not yet prepared to start taking orders, because we have a bit more testing to do.

Once we've got a final design, we'll let you know. Expect an email announcing this in the coming weeks.

Thank you for your patience, and rest assured that we'll let you know as soon as we are ready to roll with this new design.

All the best,

Didn't the Steyr have something like that like 10 years ago or so.
