Frequently Asked Questions
How does the DXT2 Big Dot differ from standard tritium night sights?
Unlike traditional three-dot tritium sights, the DXT2 uses a single oversized convex front dot paired with a V-notch rear. This design forces your eye to naturally center the front sight without conscious effort, which is critical during high-stress defensive situations. The photoluminescent Optic Orange coating also charges in ambient light and glows before it's dark enough for tritium to take over, giving you seamless visibility across all lighting transitions.
Will these sights fit my Glock 20 SF, 21 SF, or Gen 5 model?
The DXT2 Big Dot in this configuration is specifically designed for the Glock 20, 21, and 29 platforms. Short Frame (SF) and standard frame variants of the Glock 20 and 21 share the same sight dimensions, so fitment is generally compatible. However, XS Sights recommends confirming your exact model and generation against their current compatibility chart before ordering, as sight channel dimensions can vary slightly between generations.
Can I install these sights myself, or do I need a gunsmith?
Glock sights use a dovetail mounting system that requires a sight pusher tool or Glock sight tool for proper installation — a standard punch and hammer risks damaging the sight or slide. Many experienced Glock owners install their own sights with the right tools, but if you're not comfortable with the process, a qualified gunsmith can typically install a set of iron sights in under 30 minutes. Goodland Guns can assist with installation — contact the store for details.
