Sig P250 and night sights

I'm new to the forum and this is my first post. I just purchased a new Sig Sauer P250 45acp. Sig claims that this gun is equipped with night sights. I don't believe this to be true. I asked the dealer if it came with a second magazine and he said no, but it comes with Sig-lite night sights. I thought well that's a good swap out. I guess my question is: Have any you guys, or ladies, come across this problem.

UPDATE: I just went through my instruction manual and found the part on sights. It states that this particular weapon comes with "high contrast sights". I guess I got a little worked up but the salesman should not have told me otherwise. Thanks everybody for your replies.

Do they Glow in the Dark

Well, ya need to know what you're buying before you plunk your money down. Go to this llink and look at all the P250's ( Sig P250 Pistols ) Now look at the different guns and pay particular attention to the part number, for example 250C9BSS10 and 250C9B.....one has Siglite Night Sights, indicated by the SS in the part number, the other has contrast sights. So, Sig has packaged and sold these P250's with night sights and without....no biggie.....just gotta know what you want and what your buying. Sounds to me like the salesman at the LGS either didn't know what he was doing or he found someone that hadn't done their homework and took advantage of them.....maybe. So, as the other posters have said, take a look at the sights in the dark....if they glow you've got night sights....if they don't, you've got contrast sights. If you have contrast sights and you were told you were getting night sights, your beef is not with Sig...it's with the dude that sold you the gun. :oops:

Check it out.

Plain and simple here. Not all p250's come with siglite night sites. It is something you pay extra for. If the salesman told you the the p250 you were purchasing had siglite night sights and they were not on the weapon he lied to you or didnt need to be selling guns to others with his lack of knowledge. You need to bring that up with the salesman. As for you reading that all p250's come with siglite night sights you must have been mistaken. Because that is not true. It is an upgrade that you pay $50 to $100 for. I would suggest you stop visiting Cabellas, or what ever big chain you bought it from and try a local gun shop where the people have more time and knowledge to help you out with your next purchase.
