Personally I despise tritium sights. I'm too slow picking them up in daylight! I like the brass bead (or better, gold bead) and will eventually have it done on all of my hand spoons. Until then I do pretty well with plain old bright white 3-dots. Colt's 1991A1-style are my favorite. The original government sights are a bit tiny for my myopic eyes.
The whole "accuracy arms race" has me a little puzzled, when it comes to anything besides bull's-eye shooting. I have a Philippine-manufactured Officer's sized 1911 that's looser than a Paris whore. I can make fist-sized groups with it out to 15 yards. It eats and spits out every type of .45 ACP bullet I've fed it, with no issues. I've committed extensive butchery to it smoothing out sharp edges, corners, etc.
Being able to choose which of the bad guy's nostrils to shoot with it seems like an unnecessary luxury.
