“Our officers qualification scores go up at least 20 points with the Speed Sights” – J.M. MCSO, Department Instructor
“I was just at a tough 4 day combat pistol program with the new Speed Sights. They had us throw our guns down into mud, dust, gravel, snow…the Speed Sights passed all the tests with flying colors. I must have tried 20 different sights over the years, but the performance of the Speed Sights was just unbelievable” – A.L. SJPD

More effective training saves time and money
Besides giving an edge on the street, another real advantage Speed Sights “No Guess” system can offer is optimizing training time…and cutting costs.
A training officers report:
“At the next qualification…I let officers who were marginal shooters test the speed sights. Majority of the comments were positive and most of them stated that their sights were quicker to acquire on target, that the high contrast between front and rear sights were superb. I’m the firearms instructor for the department and I saw a definite improvement with our marginal shooters; their qualification scores increased 20% to 30%. I greatly endorse these “speedsights” in that it improves my officer’s shooting skills & marksmanship. Please e-mail me a price list of the speedsights. This department will be purchasing some of your speedsights”. Thanks Again!
We actually spoke with one of their detectives who often had trouble qualifying; during their most recent test, they had come in 20 points below passing. The instructor then handed them an identical gun equipped with Speed Sights and said, “Now re-shoot the test with these”.
With no additional practice or instruction, they re-shot the course and their score went up 40 points. They passed easily, crediting the sights and saying their confidence level had gone up considerably.
By giving officers of any skill level what they need to meet their training goals more effectively, Speed Sights “No Guess” system could cut the ever higher costs of ammunition and training time.
Combat Proven
Dave Spaulding, founder of RACS training, a 28 year LE veteran, wrote up the results of his 6 month field test of the Diamond Speed Sights, which he described as “combat proven” and possibly one of the innovations that might be “…the future of combative handgun sights”:
