XS Sights DXT2 Standard Dot Suppressor Height Night Sight – Glock Green

Description

The XS Sights DXT2 Standard Dot is a suppressor-height night sight set built to solve one problem well: getting your eye to the front sight fast, in any light. The front sight pairs a tritium vial with a photoluminescent green glow dot, so it stays vibrant in daylight and quietly charges up before it gets dark enough for the tritium to take over. Pair that with the shallow V-notch rear and its tritium bar, and you get the dot-the-i sight picture that keeps you from confusing front and rear when things get tense.

Why the DXT2 Standard Dot Sits Tall

Suppressor height means these sit higher than factory irons, which is exactly what you want if you're running a can or a slide-mounted optic. On factory MOS pistols, this set is tall enough to co-witness in the lower third with popular red dots like the Trijicon RMR and SRO, the Holosun 507c series, and the Vortex Viper. If your can is throwing off your standard sight picture, or you want backup irons you can see through the optic window, this height solves it.

Built to Take a Beating

Unlike the plastic sights that ship on a lot of pistols, the DXT2 is CNC machined from steel bar stock in Fort Worth, Texas. That steel construction shrugs off drops, holster wear, and racking the slide off a barricade. The 0.140 inch front dot is sized to clear common holsters, and there are no sharp edges to snag on a cover garment during the draw.

Fitment and Setup

This green front sight set fits a wide spread of Glock models including the 17, 19, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, and 36, plus the Taurus G3c, GX4, and newer G3, and the Walther PDP. Front sight height runs 0.387 inches with the rear at 0.375 inches. XS recommends installing with a hammer and punch rather than a sight pusher, and some fitment may require light filing to the dovetail, particularly on the PDP. If you'd rather not tackle it yourself, any competent gunsmith can knock it out quickly.
