CROSS CRGST-GD FIBER OPTIC TALL HGHT Glock Gold - CRGSTGD - 046139039900
Product Description
Standard height iron sights on optics-ready Glock pistols are completely blocked by the body and glass frame of slide-mounted red dot sights, leaving shooters without backup aiming tools if the red dot reticle fails or battery power drops. Furthermore, basic tall sights often lack bright contrast points for quick sight indexing under fast-moving range or competitive shooting conditions. The Cross Armory Co-Witness Tall Fiber Optic Sight Set in Gold (CRGST-GD) solves these clearance and target indexing bottlenecks by delivering a high-profile, suppressor-height iron sight set outfitted with high-efficiency fiber optic light pipes inside a custom gold anodized housing.
Precision CNC-machined from lightweight, aircraft-grade aluminum and finished in an anodized gold coating, the CRGSTGD sight set features elevated front and rear sight profiles engineered specifically to clear popular micro red dot optics (e.g., Trijicon RMR, Holosun 407c/507c, Shield RMS) and suppressor bodies. The fiber optic rod inserts gather ambient light to create bright, rapid-indexing sighting dots, giving shooters immediate visual alignment during speed drills, tactical courses, and defensive staging.
Designed for universal compatibility across standard-frame Glock models, the Cross Armory CRGST-GD includes anti-glare horizontal serrations on the rear sight face to suppress sun glare and reflection, delivering crisp, reliable backup sighting capability for red dot equipped handguns.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:
Fitment & Sight Height Matrix: Fits standard-profile Glock models (e.g., G17, G19, G22, G23, G26, G27, G34, G35, G45, G47 Gen 1-5). Note: Will NOT fit slimline Glock frames (G42, G43, G43X, G48) or MOS models requiring proprietary narrow dovetail dimensions without verifying sight notch depth.
Installation Sequence:
- Safety check the handgun, remove the magazine, lock the slide rearward, and physically/visually verify an empty chamber.
- Field strip the handgun and remove the slide assembly.
- Unscrew the factory front sight screw using a 3/16" hex front sight tool; install the Cross Armory tall front sight using threadlocker (Loctite 242) on the mounting screw.
- Use a dedicated sight pusher tool to drift out the factory rear sight and press the Cross Armory tall rear sight into the slide dovetail.
- Verify center alignment with calipers, tighten the rear sight set screw securely, and conduct manual sight picture alignment checks with your optical red dot.
Key Features
- Co-Witness / Suppressor Height Profile: Elevated sight line provides a lower 1/3 or absolute co-witness through slide-mounted red dot optics.
- High-Visibility Fiber Optic Rods: Gathers ambient light to produce bright sighting nodes for fast target acquisition in bright sunlight and low light.
- CNC-Machined Aircraft Aluminum: Ultra-durable aluminum housing withstands slide racking and aggressive tactical use.
- Anodized Gold Custom Finish: Distinctive gold protective anodizing adds custom aesthetic styling while shielding against surface wear.
