Product Information

This Kensight Front Night Sight incorporates a self-luminous Trijicon Green Tritium Dot nestled within a High Visibility White Dot and glows brightly in low light conditions to help draw the shooter's eye to the front post far quicker than traditional iron or fiber optic front sights. In order to ensure the strength and integrity of their front sights, Kensight Wire-EDM machines them from 4140 Chrome Moly Steel and then heat treats the completed parts to a hardness of RC 38-40.

This Front Night Sight comes equipped with a 0.115" Wide Blade and a Contoured Base that blends in nicely with most round-top or "carry melted" slide profiles, resulting in a clean looking installation that requires little (if any) filing to accomplish. Compatible with Novak type front sight dovetail cuts (0.330" x 65 Degree x 0.075") as typically found on both customized and factory 1911 pistols.
