Night sights are typically comprised of three dots, with the front sight being larger and the two rear sights being smaller. The front sight typically has a brighter tritium insert, which helps the shooter quickly acquire their target. The rear sights typically have less tritium and are used to align the sights for accurate shooting.

Night sights are a popular choice for law enforcement officers, military personnel, and civilian shooters who carry a pistol for self-defense. In low-light or no-light conditions, night sights allow the shooter to quickly and accurately aim at their target, increasing their chances of hitting the target and reducing the likelihood of missing or hitting bystanders.

Night sights are available in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors to fit different types of firearms. Some night sights also feature fiber-optic or photoluminescent elements to enhance their visibility in different lighting conditions.

Here are some of the most common types of night sights and their pros and cons:

1. Tritium Sights - Tritium sights use a radioactive isotope of hydrogen to produce a glowing effect in low-light conditions. Tritium night sights do not require any external light source to work, and they provide a constant glow in all lighting conditions. The radioactive material has a half-life of around 12 years, so the sights will gradually lose their brightness over time. Some shooters prefer tritium sights because they are low maintenance and always on.
2. Fiber Optic Sights - Fiber optic sights use tiny fiber optic tubes to gather light and direct it to the shooter's eye. The fibers collect ambient light and create a bright, easy-to-see aiming point. Fiber optic sights work well in low-light conditions but can be difficult to see in complete darkness. They are also susceptible to damage if the fiber optic tubes are bumped or broken.
3. Glow-in-the-Dark Paint Sights - Glow-in-the-dark paint sights are a low-cost option that uses phosphorescent paint to create a glowing effect in low-light conditions. These sights require an external light source to charge the paint, and they will lose their brightness over time. Glow-in-the-dark paint sights are not as bright as tritium sights and are not as durable as fiber optic sights.
4. Night Vision Sights - Night vision sights are electronic devices that use infrared technology to produce an image in complete darkness. These sights are often used by law enforcement and military personnel but are not commonly available to civilians. They are expensive and require specialized training to use effectively.

When choosing night sights for your handgun, it's important to consider the lighting conditions you'll be using them in, as well as your personal preferences and budget. Tritium sights are a popular choice for their low maintenance and always-on capability, while fiber optic sights are great for bright environments. Glow-in-the-dark paint sights are a low-cost option, but they may not be as durable or bright as other types of night sights.
