XS Sights Extends Its Lineup Of Night Sights For Handguns
XS Sights has extended its line of popular high visibility sights for pistols, including its second-generation DXT2 Night Sights and a non-tritium rear option in the new DXW2 Night Sights for Glock, SIG Sauer, Smith & Wesson and other select pistol models. The front sights of all new products feature a tritium night sight center surrounded by XS’s photoluminescent Glow Dot technology.
Choose From The Many Good XS Sights
The DXT2 Night Sights have tritium in the rear, which provides the brightest indexing point for sight alignment in low light. The DXW2 Night Sights have a white-stripe rear, which reflects light to offer an excellent, bright-light sight picture and provides more affordability for the set.Â
The company’s Big Dot sight variants are offered in Optic Yellow or Optic Orange, while the Standard Dots come in green. All of the front sights in these sets feature tritium surrounded by XS’s photoluminescent Glow Dot technology.
Advantages of XS Sights’ Optic Yellow
Optic Yellow is the best option for low light and has the brightest glow intensity. Primarily based on the white light spectrum,
Optic Yellow is very reflective and will excite the dot’s photoluminescent properties faster than any other color. The increased surface area of the convex dot increases light absorption, intensifying the charge of the dot’s glow properties, making this a great low-light choice.
Advantages of XS Sights’ Optic Orange
Optic Orange is based primarily on yellow with a hint of red to ensure visibility in low light when uncharged.
The increased surface area of the convex dot increases light absorption, intensifying the charge of the glow properties of the dot. Orange is the preferred bright-light choice of many XS customers.
Their Standard Dot Sights Are Green
Green is the bridge color for the company’s Standard Dot sights. It glows well in low light and offers vibrant, bright-light sight indexing. This color performs well on the smaller-sized Standard Dot and still manages to focus the shooter’s attention, in any light.
While there are scientific reasons these specific colors excel in certain light, many times, the choice comes down to personal preference and which color an individual’s eyes see best.
XS Sights’ Big Dot Stands Out
Sized at .188-inch and positioned for defensive shooters, the Big Dot front sights are an excellent option for EDC guns or shooters who have vision difficulty and struggle to see their sights. The Big Dot provides a distinctive front that offers a great glow. It’s the biggest front sight on the market.
Standard Dot For Precision At Distance
Sized at .144-inch, the company’s Standard Dot front sights are an excellent option for target guns or shooters looking for a smaller front sight option for more precise aiming at greater distances.Â
Don’t Forget Suppressor Height Sights
All XS Red Dot Optics (RDO)/Suppressor-Height sets are lower 1/3 co-witnessed for Glock 9mm MOS pistols equipped with a Trijicon RMR or Holosun 507C. The lower 1/3 co-witness minimizes the amount of space the front sight takes up in the optic’s window. XS’s durability and color options allow for greater flexibility and confidence when using suppressor heights as back-up iron sights for RDO.Â
