Anybody have any experience with these sights? They seem like a good idea and relatively inexpensive compared to other sights.

Williams Fire Sights

Ordered a set for my Springfield XD40. The local shop carries them, but was out at the time of my visit. Ordered them straight from Williams. Arrived in a few days and installed in less than 30 mintues.
I had read a few horror stories about installing sights on those XDs so I didn't mess around; went right at it with a punch and a hammer. Stock sights came off without damage and the fire sights went on the same. I did need to knock off some of the edge with a file before installing them. Got the rear sight lined up and added some locktite to secure it. I used a regular pencil to mark the slide to help in lining up the new sights with the old ones. Easy.
I've used them for a class I took and some local USPSA shooting. Have not had any problems and they are very secure in the dovetails.
Good Luck.
