Fort Worth, Texas (July 29, 2025) – XS R3D 2.0 night sights with green or orange dual-illuminated front sight are now available for Glock pistols with A-CUT™. These Glocks allow direct mounting of the Aimpoint COA red dot optic, and the extremely low profile of this R3D 2.0 sight (in the lower fifth of the optic window) results in minimal visual obstruction, making it an effective backup sight if the optic fails.
DIY installation of these sights is easy with simple hand tools, and there are dimensional enhancements that deliver a better user experience for Glock owners.
“We designed this R3D 2.0 rear to be slightly longer than the factory sight to minimize the area between the iron sight and optic lens – a space which tends to collect dirt and debris,” said Jeff King, Marketing Manager, XS Sights. “We also made the sides of our rear sight flush with the Glock slide to reduce snag potential while providing a cleaner, more streamlined look.”
Brighter, stronger, and even easier to install than the original R3D models, this second- generation sight has a Black Nitride surface finish which provides twice the corrosion resistance of traditional black oxide, ensuring superior durability and long-lasting performance.
