Description

Is there really a difference with Dawson Precision® sights? You bet there is!

While other sights give off a hazy glow making it difficult to focus, Dawson Precision® sights offer you the sharpest picture. We counterbore the blade so the optic is recessed. This subtle difference focuses the light in the sight making it not only brighter, but clearer. A fully cradled optic provides a longer optic lifespan.

Sight Details:

  • DESIGNED FOR Springfield Armory® 1911 (.340" dovetail cuts), 1911 DS® Prodigy®, and Dan Wesson® 1911 pistols.
  • Counter Bored Optic: Keeps sight picture CLEAR and BRIGHT.
  • Wide Base: Provides added mounting strength.
  • No Glare Serrated Front of Sight
  • Extra Optic Included – Both Red and Green
  • Easy to Install – Tools, Hardware, and Instructions Included

DISCLAIMER: If you have a .330" dovetail cut, you WILL NEED TO USE the Dawson Precision® Novak® Cut front sights.

Things to Remember!

    Unequaled sight

    Posted by Doug on Apr 18th 2018

    My eyes are getting a bit tired along with my new gun shooting 2 1/2" high I decided to cure both issues. Watched Dave install a front sight on you tube and went for it, Dave spent some time with me deciding on what sight and what dovetail. Very obliging. Now it is hitting the 10 ring and is much more visible, plus I did the install. Thanks again Dave

    Amazing product

    Posted by David on Apr 18th 2018

    Picked this up for my Springfield 1911 Range Officer to swap the front black bullseye sight. I've had it out to the range a few times (all outdoors) and my eyes lock onto that red fiber optic. I've noticed better/more consistent grouping with the 150 or so rounds I've put through it since the new sight went on. I'll be picking up one for my Walther PPQ M2

    Front sight replacement

    Posted by Bill on Apr 10th 2018

    Recently purchased a Springfield Combat Operator in 9mm. The front sight was loose and the pistol shot 2 inches below point of aim. Dawson fiber optic front sight was a perfect match and the .160" height with .125" sight width calculated the POI to be correct for POA. Fitting required removal of .001" from bottom and smoothing the sides slightly. The tool enclosed was very helpful when installing and centering the sight. Range results was dead-on at 20 yards.

    Very nice sites

    Posted by Bill Knuetter on Mar 27th 2018

    Had the sites installed today, looks great and the fit was excellent, The gunsmith that put them on for me said they fit very tight. That is what you want so I don't have to worry about them loosening up when I fire the gun. Also the shipping was very fast and free.

    Very good sight

    Like the amount of light this sight captures even during some lower light shooting. I would recommend this sight to anyone.

    Exactly what I expected

    Posted by Nic on Mar 1st 2018

    Sight is very bright and sharp. I like that the front bead is recessed slightly to sharpen the dot. Would highly recommend.

    What's not to love?

    Posted by Mark on Feb 27th 2018

    I'm a competitive shooter (High Super Senior at the Western States Single Stack Championship 2 years running) and I use Dawson exclusively for my sights. The best customer service and they so far have always fit perfectly.

    Great product. Easy installation.

    Posted by Glenn on Feb 7th 2018

    The fiber optic in this sight is great-brighter than others. The video installation is helpful and all went well with the installation. I recommend these sights.
