DXT2 PRO Series – Big Dot, Big Advantage!
Our DXT2 PRO Night Sights for FN are tritium night sights specifically crafted to enhance the performance of your EDC pistol. These defensive sights are meticulously designed with features to ensure optimal visibility in low-light conditions. 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 DXT2 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 an 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 tritium bar 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. DXT2 PRO Night Sights address these challenges by being big, bright, and easy to see, regardless of the time of day.
Our improved DXT2 PRO line offers users increased durability and corrosion resistance due to the upgraded tritium lamps and BlackNitride surface finish. Another unique change is the green glow dot front sight. Green is a great bright light option that glows extremely bright in low light. DXT2 PRO Series sights offer the same exceptional benefits as our original big dot sights – large and easy to see front sight, simple vertical alignment for fast sight acquisition, tritium for visibility in low light, and CNC machined in Fort Worth, Texas with American materials. Designed for defensive shooting, these sights offer top-notch visibility in any light condition.
Color Options
DXT2 PRO Series Big Dots are available in Green while DXT2 Big Dots are available in Optic Yellow or Optic Orange color options. Our color choices were chosen based on the visible color spectrum and the science behind how individuals perceive light in stressful scenarios. (ROYGBIV: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet).
Big Dots are designed for defensive shooting. Defensive altercations happen in both bright light and low light. Our goal in choosing colors was to pick the most visible colors in bright light and to have a bright glowing front sight in low light. The bright Green offers a high contrast front sight in day light and glows brightly in low light. In contrast, Optic Yellow glows the best in low light. Optic Orange offers the most contrast in bright light but does not glow as brightly in low light.

Upgrade Your Sights!
Looking to customize your EDC Pistol? Sights are the perfect upgrade. Factory sights on FN handguns have a few issues, and XS Sights has you covered! A major issue with factory sights is the sight picture itself being difficult to see in different scenarios. XS Sights addresses this by increasing the size of the front sight, allowing for your eyes to easily pick it up in high-stress scenarios, and by adding tritium and photoluminescent materials for a dual illuminated front sight that is hard to miss. The tritium and glow dot emits a gentle glow that guides your eye to acquire the small light source making it easily visible in low-light scenarios. This is just one of the many reasons to make your first FN upgrade, an upgrade to XS sights!
