Click-adjustments are positive and precise, allowing for reliable and consistent point of impact changes.

The Kensight DAS (Defensive Adjustable Sights) and DFS (Defensive Fixed Sights) are the perfect low profile upgrade for your concealed carry, or combat carry pistols, due to a smooth, thoroughly "dehorned", low-profile exterior. The benefit of this feature is there are no sharp edges to cut hands or catch on clothing during the draw stroke which compliments your concealed carry or defensive style 1911. This particular sight will only fit an existing Novak LoMount 1911 dovetail.

Choose Your Dovetail Style Add The Optional Front Sight A front sight with dovetail dimensions of 0.330" (Width) x 65° (Angle) x 0.075" (Depth) has become known as a standardfront sight in the industry. While these were first seen on 1911 slides with the Novak LoMount rear sight, other OEM manufactures have adopted this same size for their 1911 platform. There are two basic configurations of the standardfront sight base. One is the Flat Basestyle and the other is the contoured Base. The dovetail dimensions are both the same, so the base selection is a personal preference depending on the profile on the top of your 1911 slide. We recommend that you check your existing front sight dovetail dimensions, before purchasing the standard front sight. DAS Suggested Front Sight Height The front sight height will greatly vary depending on your rear sight selection. Most of the Kensight DASËœ (Defensive Adjustable Sights) will require a front sight height of 0.190- 0.200 Tall. We ship most of our DAS sight sets with the recommended 0.200 Tall front sight. In some cases your existing front sight may work, but this could limit the amount of elevation adjust-ability in the rear sight.
