I bought a Glock 20 and the sights were so dim, they're useless.
Only one thing to do, replace them.

Unfortunately they don't last forever! Are they after market of factory?  Try contacting Glock, what have you got to loose?

I've got a model 22 that came with the nite sights when new back in 1996, and they are dim but still visible.

I guess it's probably time I replaced them....Ya think?
My culled down Handi's are the 45-70, and then I have a few others to keep it company...357 Mag/Max. .45 LC/.454 Casull Carbine, .243 Ultra, and 20 gauge Tracker II.

there are sights called TFO  i think they are from tru glow. they are a tritium sight but they also have slots in the sight housing to gather light.we sell a lot of these  at the gun shop i work at.  they are a good set of sights and reasonable....
