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 Adds Springfield Echelon to R3D 2.0 Night Sight List
Fort Worth, Texas (June 20, 2025) – XS® Sights is pleased to now offer its popular R3D 2.0 night sights for Springfield Echelon pistols. Available with a green front dot sight, the R3D 2.0 is an outstanding upgrade for Echelon owners who want to get on target faster and more accurately in any light. This upgrade makes all the difference in high-stress, self-dense situations when every second counts.
Marketing Manager Jeff King goes on to say in the full press release that the R3D 2.0 night sights should improve both your speed and target acquisition due to the design and features of the sights.
“The Springfield Armory Echelon made a strong impression, and many owners are now looking to push its performance even further,” said Jeff King, Marketing Manager at XS Sights. “With our enhanced glow dot and refined R3D 2.0 design, shooters will notice faster target acquisition and greater confidence in every shot.”
This second-generation sight features bigger and brighter rear tritium dots than its predecessor. PVC rings surround the rear tritium dots for a more defined edge to improve sight picture and differentiate the front and rear sights. The EasyPress features eliminate the need for filing and hammering and reduce the force needed for installation by up to 50%. Designed with a BlackNitride surface finish, this treatment offers twice the corrosion resistance of traditional black oxide, ensuring superior durability and long-lasting performance.
If you’re an Echelon owner looking to level up your pistol’s capabilities, the R3D 2.0 night sights might just be your next upgrade. With enhanced visibility, a tougher finish, and easier installation, they’re designed for shooters who want an edge in any scenario and are priced at $137.99 direct from the XS Sights website.

The sights are the one thing on a Springfield I would definitely keep. I absolutely love the rear white U-Notch and Yellow front dot. I wish someone would make them for my beloved CZ-75s.
