The Kensight Mfg Low Mount Adjustable/White Dot sight is a purpose-built rear sight for 1911 pistols designed with concealed carry in mind. Unlike bulky target sights, this low-profile option won't snag on holster material or clothing during the draw—a real advantage if you carry daily. Machined from 4140 steel and heat-treated to a hardness of Rc 38-40, then vacuum tempered, these sights are built to last through thousands of rounds and years of handling.
This model combines fully adjustable windage and elevation via click adjustments, so you can dial in your point of aim to match your carry gun's point of impact. The rear sight features white dots—two ABS plastic dots measuring .070" in diameter, one positioned on each side of the rear notch—that provide a clean sight picture in low light without the bulk of tritium-equipped sights. The design mounts directly to 1911 pistols with a Novak low mount dovetail, making installation straightforward on compatible platforms.
Built for shooters who demand a no-compromise carry sight, the Kensight low mount delivers adjustability and durability in a form factor that won't print or catch on gear. Whether you're fine-tuning your EDC 1911 or refreshing an older build, this sight earns its place on a serious carry gun.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this sight fit my 1911?
Yes, if your 1911 is equipped with a Novak low mount dovetail. Verify your slide has this dovetail before purchasing, as not all 1911 variants use this mounting system.
Can I adjust windage and elevation?
Yes. This is the fully adjustable model, meaning both windage and elevation are click-adjustable so you can zero it to your specific pistol's point of impact.
Why choose a low-profile sight for carry?
Low-profile sights won't catch or snag on holster material or clothing during the draw, which is critical for reliable concealed carry. The Kensight design is specifically engineered to eliminate sharp edges and bulky profiles.
What are the white dots?
The rear sight features two white ABS plastic dots, each .070" in diameter, positioned one on each side of the rear notch. This white dot configuration provides a visible sight picture without requiring tritium or batteries.
