I have been toying with the idea of replacing the sights on both my XD and XDS with night sights. I have been specifically looking at the Ameriglo CAP sight and standard 3 dot, does anyone have these on their pistol and if so how do like them? I am also thinking of doing the work myself but have heard that the sights on these pistols can be a PITA to do, if anyone has replaced their own I would like to hear your experience.

I've got the pro i dot on my 17 abd love them. I actually had a piece of old polycarbonate cutting board that i cut to fit like the letter M over my sights abd also used it to install the new set.I've used same piece to install a total of 2 sets so far with no marring or damage at all. If my 26 didn't have a brand new set of meprolights on it I'd be putting another set of idots on it.

I use an air hammer to remove sights on an XD/XDm/XDs...They are that tight...Oh and they go out right to left. NOT left to right.

Thanks gundoc, when you say right to left I assume that is from the hammer end of the slide.
