You are ahead of the curve then. I have night sights on all my guns except for an M1A. There is no reason not to have them. If you have somewhere outdoors to shoot, go when it is low light (Not pitch black - you wouldn't be able to identify your target in that environment without a light anyway) and shoot your gun as it is now. Then, imagine how much easier and faster it would be to line up your sights if they glowed? If you want to "test" how it is, get some glow in the dark fingernail polish and put it on your sights. One dot on the front, one dot on each ear at the back. Charge them with a light and then shoot. If you don't like it, take it off. It should come off easily with any gun solvent and won't cause any permanent damage or markings.
Have you ever heard anyone say night sights were a waste of money? I haven't... in fact they are required on our duty pistols and for the front sight of our ARs. FBI statistics state 80% of shootings are in low light.
Today at noon, I am attending an exertion shooting course. Should be fun. Last we I attended a tactical considerations combat class. That was a blast. We started with dummy plastic guns, then went to airsoft and shot each other a lot and then we went live fire starting from a car. We only shot targets then of course.
