rmart Posted June 16, 2021 at 01:59 AM Share Posted June 16, 2021 at 01:59 AM Are these a Hellcat exclusive or does someone make these? And, if so, I'd like to buy a set for my Shield Plus. Love the Shield but not the sights. Love the U-dot sights but not the Hellcat... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milq Posted June 16, 2021 at 06:26 AM Share Posted June 16, 2021 at 06:26 AM 10-8 Performance makes a .140" wide U-notch rear sight for the Shield. I use their rear sight on just about everything and love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRJ Posted June 16, 2021 at 10:55 AM Share Posted June 16, 2021 at 10:55 AM Not familiar with the Hellcat because Springfield is on my do not buy list. They haven't been forgiven. Trijicon HD has a u notch rear sight with a big bright front dot and tritium. I've got these on my Shield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the Shield but not the sights. Love the U-dot sights but not the Hellcat... I am just curious. What is it that you dislike about the hellcat?

Rangerdeepv Posted June 17, 2021 at 06:36 PM Share Posted June 17, 2021 at 06:36 PM The U-sight on my Hellcat is one of the best sights I have used. Was between this and the Sig Sauer and the Springer won going away for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmart Posted June 17, 2021 at 11:38 PM Author Share Posted June 17, 2021 at 11:38 PM I don't really dislike the Hellcat and I don't have any particular animus against Springfield despite their recent traitorous actions...I did a side-by-side (countertop) comparison of the Sig P365, the Ruger Max9, the Hellcat and the Shield Plus. Admittedly I went in with a bias towards the Shield Plus because I like my Shield so much. I wanted to like the Sig best because, Sig... The Ruger, despite the dealer's high recommendation didn't do anything for me and neither did the Hellcat other than the sights. It came down to feel in my hand and target/sight acquisition on bringing it up to the eye. The Hellcat sights just jumped right into position but the Shield Plus just felt right in my hand and the sights (plain 3-dot) worked. I have the TFO sights on my Shield and if I can't find the U-dots anywhere I'll likely put TFOs on this one as well until the U-dots become available for aftermarket use.

Yeti Posted June 18, 2021 at 02:37 AM Share Posted June 18, 2021 at 02:37 AM One of the Vickers sights might be an option for you: https://shopwilsoncombat.com/Vickers-Elite-Battlesight-for-SW-MP-Tritium/productinfo/761T/ https://shopwilsoncombat.com/Vickers-Elite-Battlesight-for-SW-MP-Black-Serrated/productinfo/761B/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
