How to Install the Meprolight FT Bullseye on a GLOCK 19

The Meprolight FT Bullseye quickly gained popularity among pistol shooters since its release. Originally, the sight was only available for GLOCK and Springfield Armory XD and XDM. But now the bullseye-style micro red dot pistol optic that taps into a shooter’s natural aiming instinct is also available for the Sig Sauer P226 and P320, Smith and Wesson M&P and M&P Shield, H&K VP9 and Remington R1.
In the video below, Doug Odishoo, Master Gunsmith and owner of Delta Arsenal in Wallingford, CT walks us through a quick and easy installation of the FT Bullseye on a GLOCK 19 Gen 4. As always with firearms, safety is paramount. Odishoo advises to do a safety check to make sure the firearm is unloaded before beginning any installation.
Meprolight’s engineers combined fiber optics with tritium to create a low profile, single rear sight that works day or night and in any lighting condition. No battery needed. The sleek design allows the shooter to continue using the holster of choice.
The sight is available in red or green dot/circle starting at $199. Meprolight guarantees the tritium to last up to 12 years. The FT Bullseye is the ideal sight for law enforcement, self-defense and competitive shooters.
Meprolight night sights and optics are available in the United States through The Mako Group. You can order your FT Bullseye today here: www.themakogroup.com/ftbullseye.

The ACTUAL official Meprolight install video shows using Locktight 609 on both the screws and dovetail. I'm not sure why this "professional" isn't doing this.

[@torinoracing]

I just did my install and went super easy. My question like others is do you suggest using locktite ?

[@joeck30]

Haha. Tried out on a 365. Did not like it

[@azkasper7969]

First thing we do, "make sure it's loaded "

[@jakescorpion1]

do you have to remove the front sight?

[@WalidOquendo]

You don't. But many people do because their instinct is too look for the front sight and they throws your aim off. These sights make the front sight a distraction basically.

is there a 'plug' for the hole created by removing the front site?@@WalidOquendo
