The Glock 22 is a popular pistol model used by various police forces around the United States. With standards like sure-action safety, 15-round capacity, 4.49-inch barrel, 34.39 ounces fully loaded, and .40 S&W caliber, it's no wonder it's a popular choice for police forces around the United States.

I used to be critical of people who put aftermarket Glock 22 sights on their EDC (everyday carry). My thought process was that if you can't hit what you're wearing, you haven't practiced enough to wear it. Until I bought my Springfield Hellcat, I stuck to this damn philosophy.

The Hellcat is too small for me to get a proper grip (even with the 11+1 magazine.) Due to my lack of confidence in the grip, I looked into getting a separate Glock 22 scope for the Hellcat so I could just point and shoot.. Buying an aftermarket sight was worth the money because it allowed me to feel confident concealing my Hellcat.

I would greatly benefit from switching to a full size Glock 22 or Glock 20. Glocks simply feel better in the hand, which leads to greater confidence and therefore accuracy. Maybe I should leave the Hellcat to my wife. Long story short, make the Glock 22 sight work for you.

When looking for a rear sight for your Glock 22, there are a few considerations you want to keep at the forefront of your mind. The sites I will review are all low profile "iron sites". This excludes all reflex sights, holographic sights and scopes. I use the term iron sites loosely because I understand that they are not really iron sites.

The TruGlo TFO Handgun Glock 22 Sight Set is a great sighting option for your Glock 22. What makes this TruGlo unique is that TruGlo allows you to use green or yellow fiber in your rear sight with this optic.

If you choose yellow for your rear sight, your eyes will naturally help enhance the green front sight. This scope weighs only 22.68 grams, making it light and compact to be an excellent pistol scope.

The TFO handgun sight has considerable durability. The scope is made of CNC machined steel, steel lasts longer than plastic and is less likely to twist, bend or break. When you carry your gun every day, you want to consider all the environments your gun and scope will be in. Steel is your best bet to ensure your vision remains zero.

The fibers used in this sight are hidden and cannot be seen by your target, so do not leave your position. The scope is slim at 5.75 x 3.75 x 0.75 inches, which helps prevent snags when you draw your Glock from the holster.

Truglo designed this scope around the standard measurements of daily carry holsters to ensure that when you draw your Glock, the reticle will be ready and lined up.

The TruGlow TFO is machined and assembled in the USA using Swiss tritium for maximum brightness. The same tritium is used in high-end automatic Swiss watches for clarity in the dark. The tritium pieces of this sight come with a 12-year limited warranty. Tritium night sights are great for everyday pistols because they have a consistent point of aim day or night.

Trijicon Night Sight Set for Glock 22 is the perfect sight set for night vision. This kit is specifically designed to meet the needs of tactical shooters. Three dots green tritium technology, front sight with a long blade. The reticle on this sight is surrounded by photoluminescent paint for clarity at night.

The back has a U-shaped notch, which is a unique design. This unique configuration creates greater visibility and thus speeds up the acquisition of the front sight post. The front surface of the rear sight is deeply grooved by design to aid in one-handed emergency slide operation and durability. This scope fits the Glock 22 model.

The Glock 22 tritium night sight used in this scope has a 12 year warranty. Many of us are familiar with the Trijicon brand through their ACOG technology. I believe in the quality of a company based on its products. Trijicon is one of the brands I trust for any kind of vision for any platform.

The Trijicon Night Sight for the Glock 22 is recommended to be installed by a professional. I understand that all of us gun enthusiasts consider ourselves professionals, but unless you have the right tools, I would pay a small fee to have your local gunsmith put this aiming system in place for you.

Truglo took their original tritium-based sight systems to the next level. They started by upgrading their sights to their PRO series sights. This aiming system is designed specifically for Glock pistols.

On a side note, it's always better to find a sighting system designed specifically for your gun. If you've ever bought a "one size fits all" part for a gun, you'll get exactly what I'm talking about.

The TruGlow Tritium Pro Glow-in-the-Dark Handgun Night Sight features not only tritium, but also an orange focus ring on the front sight post, allowing for front sight contrast and fast target acquisition.

The rear sight is angled for one-handed operation, and with tritium fibers you have a view in all shooting conditions.

Compact in design, this sight retains the factory sight radius. Assembled in the USA with Swiss tritium fibers for maximum brightness. This scope requires no batteries or light exposure and fits into most standard holsters. As we all know, this is something you want to test before you decide to do daily carry without being able to draw your gun.

This sight also uses the U-notch design that we see on many sight models offered by various companies. The U-notch design helps with faster target acquisition by offering an easy sight picture with your tritium fiber from the scope sitting in the center of the U-notch.

It's always nice to see an intended model in a rendered vision. The Meprolight Glock Tru-Dot Sight is an excellent sight offered by Meprolight. Made of metal material, the Meprolite sight is very durable and is offered in green color on green fiber.

Made and manufactured in Israel, this scope is extremely durable and can withstand heavy tumbling actions. Light and visible day and night, this look is easy and maintenance-free. This sight has a 12 year warranty on the tritium and a one year limited warranty on the rest of the sights and can be found on Amazon for a great price.

Tritium is great because it doesn't require a battery or light exposure, and allows for the same consistent sight picture every time you aim. I enjoy the tritium fibers on my Springfield Hellcat, it makes a huge difference in dark and home defense scenarios and eliminates the need to plan for a night/dark scene.

The Meprolight Glock Tru-Dot scope is an excellent sight that I have had the privilege of using on my friends Glock 22. The scope is solidly built, aligns quickly, and is bright enough for proper use at dusk. Plate plinking is fun with any gun/sight, but Meprolite makes hitting plates a breeze.

Every gun, whether it's for your concealed carry, home defense, or just a gun for fun at the range, comes with some sort of iron sights. The above locations are original Glock factory OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) locations. OEM Glock 22 sights are Glock night sights, deliberately designed to be accurate in the dark.

Built with traditional three-dot teaching technology, this OEM night sight comes with dual-dot u-notch rear sights and single-dot front sight posts. This sight is made of steel, and therefore creates a more stable shooting platform than the scrambling sight makers. Great for home defense and low light situations. This scope fits most Glock models.

If you've ever shot a Glock 22 Odds, you need these sights attached. Overall, what Glock provides with these OEM night vision pistol sights provides a platform that doesn't require much modification. If you shoot Glock OEM night sights and they work for you, keep them! No need to change what works. If you're interested in trying nightstands, they can be found on Amazon for a great price!
