ATS sights, double stack magazine, and safety trigger ideas

One day when I was searching the internet I came across a sight company that produces these radically new sights called ATS sights. They are coming out in 2011 with night sights that they say will be radically different then the currently used tritium sights and they also currently make a set of micro sights for the Sig Saucer P238; therefore, they can be use.

Here is their website: http://www.advantagetactical.com/

I was also wondering about a future model of the XR9 that would use a double stack (or staggered) magazine for capacities of 10+1 to 13+1 in 9mm.

FInally, I am also wondering if you plan on installing a "safety trigger" such as those now used on all glock and springfield pistols as well as numerous ruer and taurus pistols. This "stafey trigger" would allow you to use very low trigger pulls while decreasing the chance of an accidental discaharge.

I am curious to see replies to the questions above.

As I posted on another topic, I am a great fan of Goshen's Hexsites. I spoke with Tim Sheehan from Goshen and he said he has made sights for a Kahr P380 which he says is a similar sized pistol to the XR9-S. I would love to see these on the XR9-S! I will attempt to attach some photos of the Kahr P380 and of my XDM45 with Hexsites. (My XDM is ported too).

As big as those sites are you may as well put a scope on the gun. They would take the "pocket" out of pocket gun they are so big. At least that's my thought just looking at them.......

Arne, maybe that's not so farfetched after all. I've been following the development of this technology as a possible solution to presbyopia issues with standard pistol sights.

It might work in a ghost-ring rear sight.
