Trijicon Night Sights Smith Wesson MP Proven 3 Dot Set

Description

The Trijicon Night Sights Smith Wesson MP set is Trijicon SA37-600442, the Bright and Tough configuration cut for the full size Smith and Wesson polymer pistols. It covers the original M and P, the M2.0, and both budget models, the SD9 VE and SD40 VE. For anyone who bought an SD series pistol because it was the sensible money, this is the single upgrade that changes the gun the most.

Fitment and Exclusions for the Trijicon Night Sights Smith Wesson MP Set

Read the exclusions before you order. Trijicon cuts this dovetail for the M and P, the M and P M2.0, the SD9 VE and the SD40 VE. It does not fit the M and P Shield, and it does not fit the Competition Optics Ready Equipment models, better known as C.O.R.E. Those two use different dovetails and need their own part numbers. The rest of the full size and compact M and P line, in 9mm, .40 and .45, takes this set without modification.

Both sights carry a white outline ring around a green tritium lamp. The ring is what your eye finds in daylight and the lamp is what you use after dark, which is the whole point of green tritium three dot sights rather than plain black irons. Each lamp sits under a sapphire jewel cap that spreads the glow evenly and keeps solvent and grit off the glass, inside an aluminium cylinder, on a silicone cushion that absorbs slide shock instead of passing it into the tritium.

The factory sights on an SD9 VE are a moulded polymer front and a plain rear. Swapping them for the Trijicon Night Sights Smith Wesson MP set is the difference between a pistol you can only use in daylight and one you can actually run at night. On an M and P the factory steel sights are better to begin with, so the upgrade is smaller, but the tritium still buys you something the originals never had.

Trijicon Night Sights Smith Wesson MP Specifications

The Trijicon Night Sights Smith Wesson MP set ships at standard height. On an M2.0 slide that has been milled for a red dot, these will sit under the optic rather than through it, so if you want backup irons visible in the window you need the suppressor height version. On an unmilled slide they index where the factory sights did and holster fit is unchanged.

Honest Notes on the Trijicon Night Sights Smith Wesson MP Set

Tritium is not permanent. It loses roughly half its brightness every twelve years, which is exactly why Trijicon warrants the lamps for twelve years rather than forever. Sights fitted now will be visibly dimmer around the ten year mark. That is true of every tritium sight sold by anyone, so treat a night sight set as a decade of service rather than a lifetime purchase, and check the date code on any used pistol that claims to have them.

Green front and green rear is the conservative layout. It gives you a clean, symmetrical sight picture, but it does not give your eye a shortcut to the front sight the way a bright orange or yellow front ring does. Shooters chasing the fastest possible first shot usually prefer a contrasting front. The Trijicon Night Sights Smith Wesson MP set is the right pick if you want the traditional three dot picture and the Trijicon build quality behind it rather than the fastest index on the market.

Installation needs a sight pusher. The M and P rear dovetail is tight, and the SD series front sight is staked rather than screwed on some production runs, which catches people out. A gunsmith will fit the Trijicon Night Sights Smith Wesson MP set quickly and cheaply, and it is worth confirming zero afterwards because a new front sight height can move point of impact slightly at distance.
