Frequently Asked Questions
Will these sights fit the Colt Cobra without gunsmithing?
These XS Sights Standard Dot Night Sights are engineered as a direct-fit replacement for the Colt Cobra revolver. Most installations can be completed with basic tools; however, if you are not comfortable with sight installation, a qualified gunsmith can seat them quickly and ensure proper alignment for optimal accuracy.
How long does the tritium illumination last?
Tritium has a half-life of approximately 12 years, meaning the vial will glow noticeably for roughly 10–15 years under normal conditions before brightness begins to diminish noticeably. The photoluminescent Glow Dot supplements the tritium in environments with available ambient light, keeping your sight picture bright even as the tritium ages.
What is the advantage of an orange Glow Dot over green?
Orange provides a high-contrast focal point that stands out distinctly against a wide range of backgrounds, making it especially effective for rapid target acquisition in defensive situations. While green is often praised for its brightness in very low light, orange offers excellent performance in transitional lighting conditions — like indoor settings or dusk — and is highly visible to shooters across a broad range of vision types.
