    Front sight options for Springfield-cut 1911

    Do you know of any bright front sight / blacked out rear sight combinations available for Springfield 1911s?

    Keep in mind Springfield uses a .330 x 60 degrees front sight dovetail cut (the standard "Novak Low Mount" is .330 x 65 degrees).

    I prefer Trijicon HDs or similar (I like the combination of large, bright orange, front outline with tritium, and blacked out rear with tritium). However Trijicon only makes these in the standard novak cut which will not work properly on a Springfield 1911.

    I just installed a Dawson front sight to my Springfield Loaded. Took me a while to fit the sight into the slide, but it worked out great.

        I installed a Dawson FO front (available from Harrison Design) and a Harrison Extreme Service U-notch rear (LPA cut) on my SA Loaded.
