Description
Trijicon designed the HD XR line to solve a real problem: finding your front sight quickly when the light gets bad. This set (part number 601183) is cut to fit the Smith & Wesson Bodyguard 2.0 and pairs a green tritium front dot wrapped in a bright yellow photoluminescent ring with a subdued, blacked-out U-notch rear. The result is a sight picture that draws your eye straight to the front post, whether you're on the range at noon or clearing a dark hallway.
What Sets the HD XR Set Apart on Your Bodyguard 2.0
The big difference between these and standard HD sights is the front post. Trijicon slimmed it down to .122 inches, which opens up more daylight on either side of the blade. That wider field of view makes it easier to pick up your target, confirm your hits, and stay precise at longer distances than you'd expect from a compact carry pistol. The rear notch is serrated and angled to cut glare and keep your focus where it belongs.
Built to Take a Beating
These sights are no gimmick when it comes to durability. The green tritium lamps glow on their own with zero batteries, and each one is cushioned in silicone rubber inside an aluminum cylinder to shrug off recoil and rough handling. Every lamp is capped with a domed sapphire jewel that spreads the light evenly for a brighter aiming point and adds a layer of protection against punctures and cleaning solvents. The tritium carries a 12-year warranty from the date of manufacture.
Getting the HD XR Sights on Your Pistol
This is a complete front and rear set, so you're getting everything needed to replace both factory sights on your Bodyguard 2.0. Trijicon recommends professional installation, and a gunsmith with a proper sight pusher will have these on and squared away in a few minutes. Once they're on, you've got a carry-ready setup that performs in broad daylight, low light, and no light.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do the Trijicon HD XR sights fit the Smith & Wesson Bodyguard 2.0?
Yes, this set (part number 601183, or the full SA638-C-601183) is cut specifically for the Smith & Wesson Bodyguard 2.0. It's a dedicated fit, so you don't need to worry about adapting sights from another platform.
Do these night sights need batteries?
No. The HD XR sights use self-luminous green tritium lamps that glow on their own around the clock with no batteries and no charging. The yellow front ring is photoluminescent, meaning it soaks up ambient light to stand out during daylight and dusk transitions.
What makes the HD XR different from Trijicon's standard HD sights?
The main difference is the thinner .122-inch front post. That slim blade opens up your field of view on either side of the front sight, making it easier to see your target and confirm hits at longer distances while keeping the same rugged construction as the standard HD line.
Can I install these sights myself or do I need a gunsmith?
Trijicon recommends professional installation. A gunsmith with a proper sight pusher can swap both front and rear sights and get them centered in just a few minutes, which helps you avoid marring the slide or knocking your zero off.
