This Champion Front Night Sight incorporates a self-luminous Trijicon Green Tritium Dot nestled within a High Visibility White Dot and glows brightly in low light conditions to help draw the shooter's eye to the front post far quicker than traditional iron or fiber optic front sights. In order to ensure the strength and integrity of their front sights, Champion Wire-EDM machines them from 4140 Chrome Moly Steel and then heat treats the completed parts to a hardness of RC 38-40.This Front Night Sight comes equipped with a 0.115" Wide Blade and a Flat Base that is optimal for use with a flat-topped slide or for those who intend to file and blend the front sight base to match the contour of their pistol's slide for a seamless installation.
