Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock adjustable sights, 20 specifically

[MLC]

I installed a heavier guide rod and spring set on my G20 and it is now shooting much lower than the factory sights using full power 180 and 200 grain bullets.
What are the best options for adjustable sights with an emphasis on taking game?

9/357/40 & G36 Glock sights are different (lower) than 10/45 Glock sights.

You might could get-r-done by swapping your G20 rear sight for a G26/19/17/27/23/22/etc/etc/etc rear sight.

get a lower front sight or trim the one you have now.
put the original parts in and no more problems.

If this is true, then making the rear sight lower will make his shots hit lower as well, exacerbating the problem.

Or get a higher rear sight if the front isn't trimmable. (fiber optic/tritium/etc

For a hunting handgun I want fiber optics front and back with the thinnest front sight post available. The fiber optic helps the front sight stand out in dim situations and the thinnest post makes for slow, but more accurate shots.

Dawson Precision sells fiber optic fronts for Glocks in height increments ranging from 0.160-0.5" with rear adjustables to match.

Whoops!

You are correct sir!

And Glock sights are absolutely different heights.
