The Trijicon bright & tough night sights are a self-luminous three dot night sight alternative to traditional iron sights. They are the first choice of Major handgun manufacturers and standard Issue with numerous local, state and Federal law enforcement agencies. Unique lens design for a shorter sight, compact snag free design, hybrid illuminated reticle, single aa-alkaline or lithium battery, rugged aluminum-alloy housing, multi-layer broadband anti-reflective coating, easy push manual brightness control, waterproof to 50 meters (165 ft.)
The Trijicon Smith and Wesson 1911 3 Dot Green Front and Rear Night Sight Set can increase your night-firing accuracy by as much as 5 times--all with the same speed as instinctive shooting. Operating entirely without failure-prone batteries, the sight is illuminated with a Trijicon Tritium Phosphor Lamp that is guaranteed to last for at least 12 years. Designed and assembled with an optimum combination of strength and safety, Trijicon night sights are the brightest and strongest available thanks to Trijicon's patented unique shock-resistant design. Filled with pressurized tritium gas, the lamp illuminates three bright green dots at night. The brightness obtained from the tritium content is focused through the sapphire lens to give the maximum possible illumination. A white ring around the glowing dots delivers unequaled daylight visibility. Trijicon's unique shock-resistant design protects the lamp from heavy recoil, harsh cleaning solvents, and any other hazards of the field. The lamp is contained within an aluminum cylinder with a silicone rubber cushion for additional shock protection. The machined steel sight blades offer unsurpassed strength. The sight's metal structure is backed by a limited lifetime warranty and the tritium lamp is warranted for 12-years from the date of manufacture.
