Designed to be used as a secondary, non-magnified sighting solution aboard carbines primarily utilizing a magnified optic, XS Sights’ XTI (Xpress Threat Interdiction) line allows for quick, close-range target acquisition without forcing the shooter to break his or her cheekweld or fiddle with the scope. Offset 45 degrees, adjustable, and reversible for both left- and right-hand use, the DXW Big Dot pairs the company’s tritium Big Dot front sight with a white stripe rear sight, and each element requires only a single slot of Picatinny rail for installation.
Price: $180. Contact: XS Sight Systems; (888) 744-4880; xssights.com.
