Brightness of the front fiber (not bright enough in day or night), paint easily stripping from the front dot insert if you use the options with painted circles around the fiber, and one comment about not liking how wide the front post is.

The Trij DI have a .160" wide front post that rests in a .169" wide U-notch and all my 10-8s are .125" wide front posts inside a .156" U-notch (the "middle aged eyes" set-up), so that would be a pretty big difference from what I'm used to.

Typing that out has me thinking I should stick with what I'm running on everything else, especially considering this is for an EDC setup. That's a really wide post on the Trij inside a relatively tight U-notch and I've never really believed in the need for tritium, anyway, for the reason UW highlights - you'll need enough light to ID your target which generally means you'll have enough light (splash) for the fiber. Sometimes I get an itch to do something different, but I think not this time after all. Thanks, fellas.
