XS Sights SG20053N Big Dot Tritium Front Sight for Remington - Orange Front

The XS Sights SG20053N Big Dot Tritium Front Sight for Remington is a high-contrast front sight designed to give shotgun shooters reliable aiming references in any light condition. Built around XS Sights' patent-pending glow dot technology, this orange front sight combines tritium illumination with a convex dot that absorbs ambient light and glows when conditions fade. The orange color—formulated with yellow and a hint of red—delivers sharp contrast in bright daylight while maintaining visibility as light levels drop, making it a practical upgrade for home-defense shotguns, hunting, and low-light shooting scenarios where sight acquisition matters.

What sets the Big Dot apart is its larger, curved surface area. That increased geometry isn't just aesthetic; it boosts light absorption, which intensifies how effectively the tritium charge glows in darkness or shadows. You get a sight picture that works hard across the full range of shooting conditions, from bright sun to dim interiors—without relying on a scope or red dot battery. Installation is straightforward: the sight epoxies onto your Remington's existing bead with any two-part epoxy (like JB Weld) and requires a bead diameter between .125" and .140". A replacement bead is included for Mossberg shotguns; if your Remington uses a different size, a standard Brownells #6 or #26 bead can be swapped in first.

This is a standalone front sight solution and does not work in combination with ghost ring rear sights. It's ideal for shooters who want to move beyond basic bead sights but prefer a simple, durable, non-electronic aiming aid.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this XS Big Dot sight fit my Remington shotgun?

The SG20053N is designed for Remington shotguns with a front bead diameter between .125" and .140". If your bead is outside that range or is not a standard Mossberg, you'll need to replace it with a compatible bead (such as Brownells #6 or #26) before installing the XS sight.

Can I use this sight with a ghost ring rear sight?

No. The XS Big Dot Front is a standalone solution and is not compatible with ghost ring rear sight systems.

What's included in the kit?

The kit includes the XS Big Dot Tritium Front Sight and a replacement bead for Mossberg shotguns. You'll also need a two-part epoxy adhesive (such as JB Weld) to install it.

How does the orange color perform in low light?

The orange is formulated with yellow and a hint of red to maintain visibility in decreasing light. Combined with the tritium glow in the dot, the sight remains visible in shadows and low-light conditions without external power or charging.
