PM9 with 2 different sights

[OnNightfall]

Hey guys, quick question... I purchased a used PM9 and I was surprised to discover that the front sight is a Meprolight dot night sight and the rear is from a Trijicon XS big dot night sight. Sorta strange the previous owner diddnt just stick to either Meprolight 3 dot night sights or a XS Big dot night sights but rather mix matched them. What do you guys think about this setup? At the range will this setup prove accurate shots considering its 2 different sight systems?

ONF:

Might work fine.
Fire a few carefully aimed test shots and let us know.

I see nuttin to get concerned about.It should work just fine. SHOOT THE FOKKER.. Just my 21 cent son this but if u think ur gonna line u that back sight and the front sight and the BG in a nite fight, ur DREAMIN or smokin some pwoerful stuff. If u see that front nite sight , that shold suffice, If u go hunting for all three objects. more than likely ur gonna be deadon arrival. Just sayin

I personally think that rear lighted nite site is more PR than actual funtionality.. Just sayin

Shouldn't be a problem and easy to remedy if it is.

Shoot it and find out if it works/works for you. Wouldn't for me, but sights are real personal.

May be he got a good deal on each one separately?

Maybe for the past owner, it worked for him in terms of getting appoximate line up on the center of mass of a bg at reasonable range.

If those sights are in proper alignment with each other, that looks like a hell of a battle sight setup

Looks like the XS Standard Dot sights and not the Big Dot front. Should be fine.

PM9 with 2 different sights

I will soon be using my PM9 as my EDC and I am about to have a green Hi-Viz fiber optic front sight installed while keeping the factory white bar rear to see how that sight picture works for me. If I don't like it I'll try a different rear sight, probably a two dot. I'll see what works best. Find whatever set up works best for your own eyes, grip, stance, physique etc.

If it's set right and is accurate I fail to see a problem.

personally, I'm no fan of fiber optic tubules up front on an edc pistol... they just don't hold up for me

The also vary too much in brightness/viz in the dark. I've become a real fan of gold bead fronts on handguns.

I got a Redhawk with a gold bead and really liked it... very easy to see, very easy to make out in early morning/late evening outside

For EDC.... I'm probably gonna have to say I'm a fan of the big dot or that setup the OP has... thats pretty slick

I put a HiViz on my PM9. It's great at the range, but poor indoors and in low-light.

First of all thanks for all your opinions and comments. I decided to go XS big dot in the front. Called XS Sights and front sight, labor, and shipping will be $90. I think the extra size of the front big dot will make target acquisition easier on this sight system. Will post pictures once installed. Again thanks for all your posts.
