If its the flag ship does it still come with the basic crappy plastic sights.

Sure does that’s why I ordered the americano agent night sights since the factory versions didn’t have the serations

Just my opinion but for the amount Glock charges for the pistol vs what it cost them to produce it, they should at least include halfway decent sights. Even some of the cheapest pistols and craptastic companies come standard with decent sights. You shouldn't have to perfect perfection. Sorry to pull out a soap box but it still pisses me off.

Compared to a comparable handgun, Glocks are cheap at retail price. I can buy a G19 with plastic sights for $389. A SIG P320 with night sights runs me $500. I can get night sights for less than $120. Through the same program, the G19 with Ameriglos runs about $470.......still cheaper than the P320 while being comparably equipped.

Personally, I prefer the G19 with plastic sights, so I can install the particular sights that I prefer.......which aren’t a factory option.

Think the sig looks better for less cash and has more icing. Even some other listings are only $50 more

Yep. A Glock with night sights is comparably priced, or less than, to a similarly equipped plastic striker gun from others companies.

So why not include it on your flagship? Plastic sights is like putting a budget rims on a Corvette.

Because it cuts the price down and most serious gun people are very particular about the sights they have on their guns.

I don’t want to pay extra for a set of Trijicons when I’m going to pull them off and replace them with what I want.

I see your point. Guess I'm just happy with the stock sights on my Sigs. Only sights I recall upgrading is my Glock 20 and I feel like I shouldnt have had to do so.
