Night Fision : Color Matters So Choose Wisely

[@ckim6400]

Yellow/Green Show up better in the dark. Red tends to darken up to the human eye. Fire Departments across the country are changing from traditional Red Fire trucks to Yellow/Green because they are more visible at night.

[@108pel]

C Kim precisely!

[@briandyer8907]

I don't know where you live but where I live the fire Department went back to red !!!!! And for my old eyes my eyes pick up bright red batter it's just a matter of preference!!!!!!!

[@Quality_Guru]

Thanks - I was looking at getting night sights for the CZ P10 C and your comments help me greatly. It makes sense since red is a shorter wave length and travels less in the dark. Thanks for the sage advise.

[@johnd4348]

Yep, but every law enforcement department loves black patrol cars. Then say they value the safety of officers. Lets put our officers in black uniforms in black patrol cars at night. Good choice.

[@stockscrypto101]

There sights suck dont buy them

[@fearnonebutone4977]

I manage a firearms shop in Michigan, and we have a good relationship with Night Fision (as they are local to us). I can say that they truly do stand behind their products and their customer service is top notch. I agree here, that the green is better than the orange.

[@markperez3912]

Where in MI??

[@stockscrypto101]

Lmao thats a lie guarantee you this is somebody from night fision I tried their products it didn’t even glow and it was never installed and they won’t get back to me by email they won’t get back to me on their main office number night fision So shitty company

Wow best site review ever! First they're all sites that I'm interested in and you showed them all side-by-side as well as what looked better on camera than in person and the color variations. Outstanding thank you.

[@danduhman1955]

Good explanation. Most content creators would not go into the detail, to inform viewers about “camera saturation”. I’ve been burned (recently) on a purchase, with this same “camera saturation” issue. 👍

[@pbzeppelin6167]

Damn thanks for this video, man! I was searching all over Google images trying to find good pictures of the red-ringed Night Fision front sight, but I really couldn't find anything that showed what it looked like, especially in the dark. This really helped me nail down the choice! Bravo

[@IR1SHwArLord21]

Tritium is a great tool for low light shooting. I know some guys that used to duct tape glowsticks over top of their ACOGs to brighten up their sights as well. The red works pretty good but I prefer the green

[@StraitClownin909]

taping acogs fiber optics does the opposite of brightening them up. They were often too bright in broad daylight.

[@MatteoThirteenSeventyOne]

I used to have an attraction to the orange colored sights. But these days I prefer the hi-viz type yellow or greenish yellow front sight. With my personal preference having the blacked out tritium rear sights. Day, low light or even night the fluorescent yellow just seems to be something the eye picks up on a bit faster. Even the construction trades have switched to a high visibility yellow for those exact same reasons. Right now I'm getting ready to pick up the Night Fision yellow front and U-Notch blacked out rear tritium sights for my Glock 19 & 26.

[@1776orbust]

I'd like to try their yellow as well

[@dinergal56]

I went with yellow FS too and a black rear , I also see it better then a orange FS .

I have orange ameriglo hackathorns and on my sights the orange looks awesome…. In daylight. In the house with lower lighting not that noticeable. I think white is actually better indoors.

[@keithgregory7937]

I like the TFX pro night sights you get the best of both worlds with fiber optic in the day and tritium at night but the tritium is not as bright as my other night sights i don't know if the fiber optic takes away from the glow at night but my other night sights are noticeably brighter.

[@chippatton9614]

Best vid on sights i have seen vary helpful great job i like the red best also

[@whatisclandestine2253]

I have yellow night fision on 3 of my glocks. Love em

[@patrickd4699]

Great presentation of the variety of sights you own, and it's nice to see them compared side by side. I have been a loyal Ameriglo customer and have them on most of my glocks and two of my S&Ws. I purchased a Night Fision front sight recently for my canik elite. I chose the yellow since the yellow Ameriglo pro idot sights have been my favorites for a few years and chose to stick with the stock Warren tactical rear sight. Not a bad combo for that particular gun. I like them just fine, but am still biased toward the Ameriglo's.

[@randallreece3636]

I agree totally. If Ameriglo made night sights for the Canik they would sell like crazy. I love the I-dot pros myself. I would have the yellow front on all my guns if Ameriglo made them.

[@CheesyGhostOnToast]

Went with white front and blacked out rear.

[@hondasaurusrex6998]

That is a very nice display of night sights, I really like those Ameriglo yellow and the Night Fision Red sights. You have an outstanding selection of NS brother, and your video presentation seems more "professional". I've been away from YT for several months and the difference in your video is noticeable and excellent. Wishing you and yours a safe and blessed Christmas and New year!

[@1776orbust]

thanks fu and you as well

[@Razor_36]

I was so torn on the idot pro vs the Hackathorns. My Dan Wesson Specialist has the Heinie straight 8 style sights and I love them. But I was really having a hard time with the yellow vs orange. Those yellow Ameriglo fronts blow all the others away for brightness! Thanks for taking the time to show us the sea of differences with sights. I subbed:)

[@Bacnow]

I assume that this is the Night Fission Perfect Dot sight! Have you tried the NF Glow Dome sights? I wonder how they would compare within your impressive lineup!

[@redwing471]

Just installed some on my P10C as well. They look great, haven't been able to shoot it yet though. :(

[@dannyg6045]

Ive found transitioning from light to dark settings or dark to light setting. ie walking from indoors to outdoors or outdoors to indoors the orange dot stays apparent and sharp to me. Green and yellow are bright to me but I can't transition very well with them.

[@davevabch]

Thank you Sir. Great informative video. Just what the Doctor ordered. I agree, for my particular eyes, green is much better.

[@hailtothe_rooster1572]

I always go with yellow or white rings. Now after having trijicon, ameriglo, and night fision, I prefer the night fision yellow/black rear. They just show better than the HD yellow I recall several years back while working construction they made us switch from orange to yellow reflective vest when working on the interstate. Yellow apparently catches the eye better day or night.

[@1776orbust]

I think the next one on my list from night fision is definitely the yellow

[@walterminer4990]

Excellent presentation! Night sights, with all the colors available, can become an actual investment! You can spend a lot of money until you get the combination of colors that actually works for you? Almost, a "Trial an error" challenge!

[@1776orbust]

Absolutely and hopefully with the lighting it gives you a better perspective as to which works better for you

[@beachdrugpanda]

I thought it was cool the parent company of Night fision is the biggest importer of tritium in the U.S. and has made compasses for the Military since the 70s

[@kirkhatleyjr5701]

Idk it seemed like the yellow ameriglo was the easiest to see in the video it just popped out compared to the others

[@gswguy4554]

Wow? That yellow really POPS!!! I’m looking for sights for P07…. Do you prefer the orange or Yellow?

[@italianrelic]

Weird Ive got orange night fision on 6 pistols not one problem you stated. Wish they made revolver sights my smiths could use

[@NikeMS11]

[@ert-7112]

Excellent video. I installed Night Fision, red front, u-notch blackout rear and I like it. Do you think it's worth it, replace the factory night sight that comes in the P07 ODG for a set of Night Fision? Thanks

[@1776orbust]

No because I think the P-07 OD Green night sights are some of the brightest night sights that you will ever see

[@34dawgsgo]

Getting older I was like you and preferred the orange. Now yellow is the only way. I just see it better.

[@Scott079]

I have the TFX pros on my green P-01, and I actually wish I had gone with the regular green front sight

[@1776orbust]

In the daylight they're fairly good because of the fiber optic option however there a bit disappointing on the brightness of their tritium

[@Scott079]

1776 or Bust I agree with that assessment

[@CaptainHookhatesBooks]

Thanks for awesome video. Are the ywllow sights Ameriglo protectors??

[@dusty_dietrich]

Can you tell me which Ameriglo yellow sight you had in the middle? I looked on their website and I can only find orange and lumigreen. That sight, on your video actually grabbed my eye better than the rest. I have Night Fision and I agree with you that they are great in daylight but the ring doesn't let the tritium glow as much.

[@hardluckclub7271]

damn wish i watched this video yesterday. went with exact setup you were showing and i was on the fence with orange or red. picked orange due to it not being so “extreme” but more subdued color and now seeing red….. should’ve gotten the red. i know i’ll still be pleased though. living in washington state, i decided against green due to all of my backdrop i’d be looking mostly at is green. can’t wait for them to arrive👍

[@03xl883c]

Maybe just me but the Ameriglo sights looked the best especially the yellow one

[@lumpvision5746]

Thanks for the video man. I just bought my 1st set of night sights. I went with the orange front and blacked out square rear from Night Fision. I felt like orange would be the best for shooting during the day. I have nothing to compare the Night Fision sights with so I'm pretty confident that I'll be satisfied with how bright that orange front will be in 😁🤷🏾‍♂️

[@Tex_I_Can]

Nice comparison! The only night sights I iwn right now is one set up Trijicon HD's. I bought them in a hurry because one of three back dots on my sight popped out on a Saturday just before sundown. I had training on Tuesday so I needed something right now. With that beind said.... I'm not a fan of "giant" dots of any kind. I haven't tried the Trijicon HD XR yet, but I think they are about the thinnest front sight you can get.

Great video! I love my XS Big Dot on my primary carry, but I chose the “green/yellow” color and honestly I don’t like it. It appears white during normal light conditions. If I had it to do over again I’d grab the orange XS Big Dot. I saw another video on the Night Fission sites and I’m intrigued. It was a wild blue color that seems to really pop regarding visibility in low light conditions. But my XS Big Dot has spoiled me, as it’s just so fast (for me) regarding quick target acquisition. A real game changer. I may grab some of the Night Fission sights for my bedside piece. (Red or that crazy blue.)
