Did you ever install the truglos on the T100?  Looking at them for my T100.

I have had the truglo TFO's on about 5 different guns and absolutly loved them. I mean I bought the bleep things 5 times. My latest 1911 came with all black iron sights and i went to buy the TFO"s again and got caught up in the hype I read and the term pro and reached a little deeper and bought the TFX.

Hated them! I guess it depends on what your priority is. The aperture that lets light into the fiber optic is much smaller on the tfx so in mid light ... The light I have most trouble with ..the light generally at indoor ranges, the front sight glows far less than most quality straight fiber optic sights. My Hi Viz and my TFO'S jumped off the gun. Big bright glowing dot compared to the tfx. 

My hi viz and other fiber optic only though are no good in dark. The tfx with the tritium are awesome in the dark but so were the TFO. Unfortunately they dont make the Tfo for the cz. The tfx boasts extra protection and chemical resistance but if you arent crawling through mud it doesnt matter. None of the guns I had outfitted with tfo were ever damaged. I was really disapointed with the tfx and took them off my 1911 and put the plain sights back on.

If you will be shooting mostly day through dusk ... I would stick with a good plain fiber optic that allows for lots of light to the tube. My hi viz has been amazing.

I wholeheartedly agree. I love my CGW fiber optic sights with the the black out back sight on my Sp-01. They are useless at night, but far and away my favorite sights. That being said, the TFX pros are a distant second... really distant. But they do what they are supposed to do. I have Mepros on My Tristar T-120 and My P-01. Got Trijicons on my P-07. I like the TFX pros the best for night sights. Personal preference. The TFX pros have tritium. They aren't my leisurely shooting sights.  They are my sights for the last resort. I don't ever want to be in the position to depend on these sights. But I am confident in them if the situation arrives.

What a shame to read these comments. I probably had high expectations for the TFX. I have several TFOs and love them. As mentioned above, they are great day & night, so I followed the pattern as my P-01 is scheduled to replace my EDC.

Is there that much of a gap in terms of light between the TFOs and TFX?
