Truglo Tritium Handgun Sight High-Visible Front & Rear Night Sights with Daylight White Dots & Low-Light Tritium Glowing Green Dots, Compatible with 1911 Handguns

I needed a set of night sights for a Novak-cut 1911. These did the trick easily and were a great value for the money. I had a gunsmith install them for me. They look great and are bright in darkness. I am pleased with my purchase.

It was not a direct fit I had to make fit but it works great thanks

Doesn't fit the Taurus 1911 full size. Doesn't state if it's a true fit. Very vague...

This sight set fit my Springfield Armory 1911-A1 Loaded perfectly. From start to finish, the sight swap took me approximately 30min using a quality sight pusher. I have been waiting nearly twenty years for this upgrade because I didn't want to give up my Novak sights, & I'm glad I found this set.

Installed sights on my 1911 Commander using quality sight pushing jig. Rear sight was tight, hard to get into place even using a box wrench to turn the seating bolt. Front sight went into place so much easier I took it out and used a punch to peen the metal in the bottom of the sight. It went into the dovetail much more securely the second time. Took it to my backyard range, fired three magazines of 230 FMJ checking the sights after each round in the magazine. Last round from the last magazine, I checked and...no front sight. Second to last shot the sight was still centered in the slide. Not blaming Tru-Glo, it’s something Ive heard of from many shooters over the years. Would be great if they sold just the front sight so I didn’t have to buy a set to replace it.

Perfect replacement sight for my Tisas 10mm commander. After installation I checked the sights for zero. Height was dead on !!!! Very bright tritium sights!

Ok, some word of advice here. I put an exact set on a Kimber pro carry and couldn’t be happier with the results. My latest purchase is a SA range officer champion with novak cut. I wanted to replace the front fiber optic. Looked around and almost all options were $100 plus for rear sight alone. I ordered this set as an alternative knowing i could return to Amazon without hassle. The sight is labeled Novak cut, but it is not 100% compatable with Springfield Armory products. This is not tru glows problem. SA for some reason takes liberties with their sight cuts.. not even sure a genuine Novak brand sight would fit without some alteration. That being said the front sight was a perfect fit, The rear sight was about 95%. Slide cut was off angle at the rear and slightly too deep. I tightened the set screw and you can see some light under the sight. I thought of shimming but tried lock tight as another reviewer did. That works. You got to look really close to notice the fix. They look great and fit flush with the slide with no overhang.

These are very nice night sights. They tritium vials are quite bright, just as bright as Meprolight or Trijicon sets. The white dots surrounding the vials are more than adequate for gaining a good sight picture in the day time too. These were easy to install, and only required minimal filing to fit the Novak cuts on my slide, as they should. I used a drop of blue Loc-tite under the base of the front blade, and on the screw for the rear sight, and they seem to be holding in place fine. I do not have a sight pusher, and wasn't going to buy one to put these on, so I tapped the front sight in place with a hammer and a brass drift punch. This worked fine, and despite my less than gentle approach the sight and tritium vial remained intact. One word of advice if you install these the unsophisticated way I did, DO NOT HIT THE BLADE OF THE SIGHT. Only allow your drift/bar/punch/whatever to contact the base of the front sight. If you hit the blade, you can bend it and break the tritium vial inside. This would relegate your front sight to daytime only duty.
