P-07 night sights... CGW Dawson or Night Fision?
« on: March 10, 2019, 03:17:05 PM »
Been talking about getting another P10c to replace the one I sold, but now thinking to use that money to upgrade my P07 with a CGW kit and night sights. My go-to sights are AmeriGlo Spartans because I like the bright green front against the subtle rears; helps me with front sight focus. But I?m giving up on waiting for them to venture into making for CZ.

So, what?s the next best thing? I could get the same effect from NF, but they?re still fairly new and seem to get mixed reviews. The Dawson?s that CGW sells seem to be a solid bet. I don?t get the green front, but the front does seem to be big enough to make it stand out against the rears.

Any thoughts or input on these options or others? Thanks for any help!

I have a P07 and I?m going to give the Night Fision sights a go.

They offer a red ring and that?s different from my other guns which have a white rings.

Dawson Sights have a great reputation  though.

I have Dawson front night sights on several of my pistols, including a P07 and a P10c. They are top notch and I highly recommend them.

I put a Night Fision front sight on my SIG P365. The cup surrounding the tritium vile broke apart after 200 rounds. Night Fision did replace the sight quickly, so I was satisfied with their customer service. However, the second sight lost the tritium gas after only 100 rounds. I am contacting Night Fision tomorrow morning for another replacement. I'll give the third one a try, but if I have any issues, I'll go back to the SIG Xray3 sight. At this point, I think the jury is still out on Night Fision.

Well, that?s not very comforting.  I just ordered a set of Night Fisions for my P-07!

Oh man that?s not good on the Night Fission. Working on a 3rd front!

Guess I?ll be going with Dawson for my P07

I think it all depends, I have Tru Glow trits and I wouldnt trade them for anything. The Night fissions are pretty interesting though.

Here's an update on the situation with Night Fision. I contacted them and they apologized about the second sight failure. They had me fill out a short replacement form. The defective sight does not have to be returned. They promised to get the replacement sight out ASAP. Last one was sent within 3 or 4 days. So I have to say the Night Fision's customer service is top notch. Hopefully, the third sight will be the charm. I certainly hope so because I really like the Night Fision sight. I will report back once I get the replacement sight installed and get a few hundred rounds through the pistol.

That's good to hear. I've had one of their front sights on my P-07 for several months and at least 500 rounds through it during that time and haven't had any issues.
