I have XS Big Dots on my two HK's and like them. As was mentioned, they are more for close in work. I don't know that most defensive guns will need to be super precise as most shootings seem to be inside of 7 yards.

Now, the rear sight I am now in love with is the 10-8 Performance with the "U" notch. It's much faster for the eye to pick up the front in my experience. I used to think three dots were the only way to go, but I have learned much in the last few years and now prefer a solid black rear sight that doesn't distract from the front sight.

The front I want is the TFO from Truglo. I'd be okay with their green, but would prefer a red front. Still, the combination of fiber optics and tritium seems to be the best of both worlds. They don't make it for my guns so I haven't tried them yet, therefore I cannot speak to their durability.
