Big Dot Express Sights
All our Big Dot Express sight systems offer a large and easy-to-see front sight. The front sight utilizes a unique photoluminescent Glow Dot, which absorbs surrounding light and emits a gentle glow when lighting is limited. The convex shape of the dot provides a larger surface area, maximizing light absorption and intensifying the brightness of the Glow Dot. Our primary objective when designing the Big Dot Express sights was to make them large and highly visible, addressing common issues such as aging eyes and deteriorating vision. The rear sight features a shallow V shape, ensuring a simple, low-profile design that offers a superior field of view.
To prevent confusion between the front and rear sights in high-stress situations, we adopted the "dot-the-i" sight picture. This sight picture consists of a tritium dot in the front sight and a line in the rear sight, facilitating quick and accurate target acquisition. In most gunfights, both the victim and attacker are in motion, with the victim primarily focused on the threat. Big Dot Express sights address these challenges by being big, bright, and easy to see, regardless of the scenario or time of day.
DXT2 PRO Springfield Sights Overview
Our DXT2 PRO tritium sights are optimized for self-defense situations. Our Big Dot front sight, featuring tritium and a photoluminescent glow dot, ensures optimal visibility in both bright and low-light conditions. The bright Green color offers a high contrast front sight in daylight and glows brightly in low light. The Black Nitride surface finish gives enhanced corrosion resistance, making the set ideal for EDC in a sweaty or humid environment.
DXT2 Springfield Sights Overview
Our DXT2 tritium sights improved on our original flagship product. The front sight features a yellow or orange photoluminescent glow dot surrounding a tritium vial in the center. The combination gives you a vibrant front sight in bright light and a glowing sight in low light. The shallow V rear sight features a vertical tritium vial for low-light indexing and is low-profile to help draw your eye to the front sight.

Our DXW2 sights offer a simple dot-the-i sight picture with a reflective white stripe in the non-tritium rear. The front sight is equipped with tritium in the center, surrounded by our glow dot technology.
