I have them on my Glock 23.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>XS is most famous for their DXT &#8220;big dot&#8221; sights, which looks like sights from an African Double Rifle scaled to a handgun, with a\u00a0wide V in the back instead of a notch.\u00a0 The front dot on the DXT\u00a0is\u00a0about three times\u00a0larger than\u00a0normal, giving it a very distinctive look.\u00a0 But\u00a0it\u00a0is fast.\u00a0\u00a0It might not make the podium at Camp Perry, but it is aptly suited for close encounters. I know, they have been on my Glock 23 for years.<\/p>\n<p>The XS F8 Sights are lower in profile compared to the\u00a0DXT sights.\u00a0 Nevertheless, they are unique.\u00a0 The\u00a0front sight features a massive orange ring, perfect for\u00a0daytime\u00a0shooting.\u00a0 Inside that ring is a bright\u00a0tritium dot, with a smaller tritium dot in the rear.<\/p>\n<p>For night shooting, you stack them like a Figure 8. The notch in the rear is wide, helping you acquire the sights faster from the draw. These are features that are unlikely to help your bullseye score, but they are fantastic for a carry gun. The glow at night is hard to mistake, and the Figure 8 lines up quickly, even in no light.<\/p>\n<p>[one_half]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_89065\" style=\"width: 263px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gastatic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Screen-Shot-2018-02-28-at-2.58.55-PM.png\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"xs-f8-sights-review\" title=\"Sight Swap!
