This Kensight 1911 Front Sight incorporates a Fully Serrated Ramped Blade that effectively reduces glare in bright, backlit conditions and makes for a simple sight picture that's easy to acquire against light backgrounds and is the traditional favorite of both competitive target and bullseye shooters. In order to ensure the strength and integrity of their front sights, Kensight 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 Sight comes equipped with a 0.115" Wide Blade and features a Contoured Base that blends in nicely with most round-top or "carry melted" slide profiles, resulting in a clean looking installation that requires little (if any) filing to accomplish. Compatible with Novak type front sight dovetail cuts (0.330" x 65 Degree x 0.075") as typically found on both customized and factory 1911 pistols.
