XS Sights revolver sights

XS Sights is adding new options for Smith & Wesson, Colt and Taurus revolvers to provide from sighting choices for revolver owners. These new sights are in addition to the existing products which XS Sights has for revolvers from Kimber and Ruger as well as the manufacturers listed here.

White Dot Front Sight with Tritium Center

The white dot front sight with a tritium center delivers high visibility in any lighting condition. The bright white dot provides strong contrast in daylight and reflects ambient light for enhanced visibility in low-light environments. While the white portion itself doesn’t glow, it remains visible until the tritium’s glow takes over in darker environments

Brass Front Sight

This brass front sight features a hand-polished insert which catches and reflects ambient light, delivering a natural way to have a bright, high-contrast aiming point in almost any environment. The smooth, reflective surface enhances visibility, making target acquisition faster and more precise. With its durable construction and refined finish, this sight provides a reliable and consistent sight picture shot after shot.
