I own a Pug with white dot sights and wrote NAA about putting the night sights on my Pug.

They wanted me to ship the gun to them for the upgrade.

They won't send me the sights, which I can change myself...and they want to charge me more if I want to keep my original white dot sight that is currently on the gun.

This is one of the few times where I feel I have to give NAA a failing grade. I'm a machinist by trade, and very competent in regard to modifying my arms.

XS sells the sight for the guardian but don't know if it fits the pug or BW

I don't understand your point . Do you want free night sights ? Did they say they wouldn't sell you the sights ? They weren't going to EXCHANGE out the sights for yours ? You didn't want to keep your white sights and still them change out for night sights for no charge . Heck if that's the case I'm going to ask for a few hundred rounds of ammo for beginners .

My personal feeling is that the sight that came with the gun is the best choice. Can not justify the cost for the night sight on a belly gun.
I agree though, if you just have to have them, NAA should be willing to sell and ship it to you.

Just can't imagine needing better sights on the firearm I might need after emptying the 18 rounds from my P226. If I miss with my main charge, I'm lookin' to only make a hole in something too close.

Learn to shoot. You won't need so many bullets.

Sorry for the lack of clarity. When I wrote NAA to ask about getting the tritium sight upgrade for my Pug their response was "it would require sending the gun back to the factory for installation. If you want to swap the sight it would be $35 + $25 return shipping for the firearm, If you want to keep the white dot sight and have the new tritium sight installed the cost would be $85 + $25 return shipping." Note this does not include the cost of me shipping the Pug to NAA.

@EvilWayz, do you have a direct link by any chance?...I looked up the item number you provided at the XS website, but didn't find any items matching that number.

XS is the manufacturer of the Big Dot sights.

If you don't have the proper tool to install them it is easy to break the Tritium ampules in night sights. Since you're a machinist you can build a tool, but it's not just a tap 'em out and tap'em in process. You'll need a miniature version of the MGW sight tool to keep the ampules from breaking.
