Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Ember® Glow Dot Technology work?
Ember® Glow Dot Technology uses a photoluminescent material in the front sight that absorbs and stores ambient light, then re-emits it as a visible glow in low-light environments. The front tritium lamp continuously charges the Ember dot, which means the front sight stays brighter than the rear at all times — helping your eye naturally prioritize the front post and maintain proper sight alignment even in near-darkness.
What pistols are the XS R3D Night Sights compatible with?
XS Sights manufactures the R3D line to fit a wide range of popular handgun platforms, including various Smith & Wesson, Glock, Springfield Armory, Sig Sauer, and other models. The specific SKU determines the exact fit, so verify your pistol's make, model, and generation against XS Sights' compatibility chart or contact Goodland Guns to confirm the correct set for your firearm before purchasing.
How long do the tritium vials last in these night sights?
Tritium is a mildly radioactive gas that naturally decays over time, with a half-life of approximately 12 years. In practical terms, most tritium night sights glow visibly and effectively for 10–12 years under normal use. XS Sights backs the R3D line with a 10-Year No-Questions-Asked warranty, so you're covered for the full useful lifespan of the tritium illumination.
