#XSSights

Despite the rapid advance of pistol-mounted optics, many shooters still prefer a standard front-and-rear sight setup for reliability or as a backup. There are no batteries to go dead with this setup, and some shooters might feel this arrangement is more rugged or easier to conceal. It certainly saves money.

XS Sights is answering a pretty obvious question with the R3D 2.0 for the PSA Dagger Micro: if you're carrying a subcompact that's built for fight-now defensive work, why settle for factory sights in low light? The answer is you shouldn't, and XS has equipped the Dagger Micro with night sights that actually deliver on the promise.

XS Sight Systems has released a new line of fiber optic sights designed specifically for Smith & Wesson revolvers. The Fort Worth, Texas-based manufacturer now offers sight options for J, K, and L frame models, with both fixed and adjustable rear sight configurations.

The Walther PDP has quickly become a pistol of choice for all manner of applications: defense, recreation, and competition. Like many stock handguns though, it can leave much to be desired in the way of iron sights and even the adaptation of optics. So, in this TFB Review, we are going to take a look at the XS Sights Walther PDP Tritium Sight Set and RMR Optic Plate Bundle to see how much of an upgrade it actually is for a factory Walther PDP. Let’s dive in!

If you’ve got a Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0 or a Walther PDP pistol and you want to increase magazine capacity, then XS Sights hears you calling from the wastelands and has just what you need—the components you need to boost your onboard ammo by another five rounds.

XS Sights has been around a long time, and so has the Ruger SP101 revolver. That doesn’t mean that the sight manufacturer can’t keep on figuring out new ways to improve this old wheelgun design, though. They continue to innovate with a new pre-drilled front sight system for this revolver.

If you’ve got an H&K VP9 and you’re thinking that you’d like to upgrade the irons, then XS Sights wants to talk—they’ve got a new set of fiber optic irons, as well as a new set of optic plates for this handgun.

XS Sights is back at it again with another set of sights and optic plates, this time for the Diamondback SDR and the extremely popular Walther PDP series of pistols. The Diamondback SDR, an extremely compact self-defense-focused .357 Magnum revolver, will be receiving the XS Minimalist Night Sights, which feature windage-adjustable blacked-out rear sights, with a combo of an XS Glow Dot front sight — a switch from the standard-issue fiber-optics that come on the SDR. Meanwhile, the PDP series of pistols will be getting new XS Sights optics plates for the RMR and ACRO footprints, in addition to new fiber-optic sight kits and Minimalist Optics Ready (OR) sights. The official press release is below, as usual.

XS Sights has introduced a new Lever Rail designed for the Smith & Wesson Model 1854 lever-action rifle chambered in .44 Magnum with a 19.25-inch barrel. The rail provides a modern, stable optic mounting solution while maintaining the rifle’s traditional styling.

Lever-action rifles ain’t what they used to be. We’ve gone from the days when grandpa’s wood-and-steel Henry/Marlin/Savage was as good as it got. Now we have a lot of competition in the lever rifle scene, and the theme of the year is Space Cowboy, with add-ons and accessories that meld the world of tactical rifles with the Wild West. And that’s where XS Sights comes in with their new forend for the S&W 1854, offering M-LOK slots all around.

XS Sights has launched the Minimalist OR Tritium night sights specifically fit for the HK CC9, designed for co-witnessing in the lower fifth of an RMSc optic window. The front sight features a self-illuminating tritium lamp, while the blacked-out, serrated rear sight reduces glare and keeps the shooter’s focus on the front sight. The rear ledge enables one-handed slide racking for practical use. Built with a Black Nitride finish, these sights offer twice the corrosion resistance of standard black oxide and should make for a great addition to one of the latest offerings in the micro compact 9mm market.

XS Sights has released their Minimalist night sights, now tailored for Colt Python revolvers. True to their name, these sights prioritize simplicity and functionality, delivering a clean notch-and-post design for shooters who prefer no-nonsense performance. The front sight sports a tritium insert paired with a photoluminescent glow dot, available in green or orange to match user preference. The rear sight, adjustable for windage, features a serrated, anti-glare blacked-out notch with a wider profile to draw the eye to the front sight for fast, precise alignment.

XS Sights has released its R3D 2.0 night sights, available with either green or orange dual-illuminated front sights, for Glock pistols equipped with the A-CUT optics cut. These A-CUT models allow direct mounting of the new Aimpoint COA red dot optic, and the low-profile design of the R3D 2.0 keeps the sights sitting in the lower fifth of the optic’s window. This placement minimizes visual obstruction and makes the sights a practical backup option should the optic fail.

If you’re a fan of the Springfield Echelon pistol but find its OEM sights to be a bit lacking, you’ll be interested to hear that XS Sights has launched new SKUs of their popular  R3D 2.0 night sights that are compatible with the Echelon pistol. The R3D 2.0 night sights feature a better design that is much easier to install and maintain without damaging the sights, while offering a 12-year illumination guarantee, and of course, the big bright front green dot that a lot of people love about the R3D system.

XS Sights just announced its XS Lever Handguard (LVR-HG) for Henry lever-action rifles. The LVR-HG was designed for the modern lever-action shooter, meticulously crafted based on real-world usage for those looking to update their Henry rifle with a customizable handguard solution that is rugged, lightweight, and will accommodate lights, lasers, or any other M-LOK compatible device.
