Bright and clear
I installed this sight on my Kahr Arms P40 and what a difference! I could barely see the factory front sight but this sight pops! My eyesight isn't the best but this front sight is extremely easy to bring on target.
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.

Loctite is not included so make sure to grab some Loctite 620 Threadlocker. Works on all dovetail front sights. Do not use on screw on front sights such as Glock, trust us.

First off customer service was awesome. I called an explained my problem with my Kahr shooting high from point of aim.So after giving some information to the tech he calculated my front sight needed to be 0.040 taller which I ordered. just finished install and test fired impact now spot on. quick note install went well but go slow and follow directions you will have no problem. Reason for only four stars is I wish fiber was a little larger but still massive improvement in visibility of front sight.
Dawson makes great sight and has excellent customer service .. but the Kahr New Dovetail Fiber Optic Front Sight does not fit properly on a new slide for a Kahr MK9 ... I had to file the underside of the front of the sight to clear the slide after taking off quite abit of material on the bottom of the sight ... I have put on many sights and this took about two hours to install properly.
PURCHASED FRONT AND REAR FIBER OPTIC SIGHTS FOR MY KAHR P380. FIRST I CALLED DAWSON'S SALES TO BE SURE I WOULD ORDER THE RIGHT SIGHTS. THE SALES PERSON WAS RIGHT ON TOP OF THIS AND SUPPLIED CORRECT INFO. I ORDERED AND RECEIVED ,IN OREGON, IN JUST A FEW DAYS. OKAY, I INSTALLED THESE MYSELF. I AM NOT A GUNSMITH BUT DID EVERY THING THE VIDEO SAID TO DO. THE ONLY PROBLEM WAS THE REAR SIGHT WHICH I FILED A LITTLE TO MUCH. RESULT, BEING A LOOSE SIGHT IN THE DOVE TAIL BUT, WITH A LITTLE THREADLOCKER AND THE LOCKING ALLEN SCREW IT WORKS. I WILL SAVE UP ON MY GUN MONEY AND BUY A NEW REAR SIGHT AND DO IT RIGHT. ALL I CAN SAY ABOUT DAWSON PRECISION IS THE PRODUCT,SERVICE AND CUSTOMER PHONE SERVICE IS " A FIRST CLASS OPERATION" AND WHAT A DIFFERENCE THESE NEW SIGHTS MAKE.
This is the only front sight I could find that offers different heights for the Kahr PM9. My pistol shot three inches high at ten yards and the .20 height fixed the problem. It took about ten minutes to fit and install. The narrow width is easier to acquire than the factory sight. Also, the aluminum punch that was included worked beautifully.
