HI,
I posted about two months ago about how MMC did a poor job of putting a set of adjustable night sights on my usp 45. The font sight was actually taller than the elevation maxed rear sight. The gun was hitting low as a result. Here is a picture. I was pretty mad:

I sent the gun back to them with a letter telling them how disappointed I was with the set up. A month later, they called me and told me my gun was done. They offered to ship the slide to my new (temporary) address. They didn't charge me for the whole thing, which was expected. A month is a little long in my opinion, but atleast they were nice about it and now the proper sight is on there.
The the blue green combo is very, very bright and the white outlines are easy to see too. I took it to the range today and it was right on; I maxed the rear elevation and it put poi right where I like it. This old (1995) usp is soooooo accurate it is almost boring. The adjustable mmc's make me shoot a bit more accurately than the regular fixed sights.
I like how the MMC's are very small and compact for being fully adjustable. I would recommend them for carry or just good adjustable sights period. I wished they would let a little more light in around the front sight, but, oh well, they are good anyway. I am very pleased with them.
I wish I had my camera here so I could take a picture of the new, proper set up. (The actual front sight is about half as high as the one you see in the picture above, and black rather than the greyish tone seen above.) I am going to give these sights a workout. They get my vote for the number 1 upgrade to the usp.
MMC made it right, even though I was sort of a jerk about it, but for $170, I could afford to be.
