Xs Sight Dxt2 Big Dot Kimber 1911 Custom 5" & Ultra Carry Yellow

XS Sights DXT2 Big Dot night sights for Kimber 1911 Custom 5" and Ultra Carry models deliver reliable low-light target acquisition when you need it most. Tritium-powered front and rear sights give you a glowing sight picture in darkness without batteries or electronics—the front sight's photon-absorbing dot also catches ambient light during the day. Unlike conventional three-dot sights, the Big Dot design employs a larger front sight element paired with a low-profile V-notch rear, making the front post dominate your sight picture for faster target centering in dim conditions and quick-action scenarios. This combination works equally well for defensive carry, range sessions, and low-light hunting.

The yellow glow dot on the front sight provides high-contrast aiming in twilight and indoor shooting, while the DXT2 rear sight features a white outline with tritium center for additional daytime visibility. The entire sight set is CNC-machined steel—tough enough to survive holster draws and hard use—and the rear sight includes a ledge for emergency one-handed slide manipulation if you ever need it. Sight picture is simple and intuitive: center the Big Dot in the V-notch, just like dotting an "i."

Kimber 1911 owners appreciate how these sights keep their pistol functional in any light condition while maintaining the classic 1911 profile. The DXT2 is designed to work with standard 1911 holsters, so you won't need to replace your carry rig. XS Sights backs this product with a 10-year warranty and a 30-day satisfaction guarantee—confidence you can count on in a sight you'll trust with your life.
