Big dot sights for smith and wesson l frame revolver - XS Sight Systems DXW Big Dot Sight - Sig Sauer

I purchased DXW night sights for my Smith and Wesson 586 L Comp, which has a 3 in barrel. They are a vast improvement over the factory Performance Center sights, which I found difficult to pick up due to black on black front and rear sights and the TINY tritium insert. I have yet to try the Big Dot in low light, but at the indoor range they are easy for my middle aged eyes to pick up and quickly align, allowing me to gain an accurate sight picture MUCH more quickly then with the factory sights. The only reason I give the XS four stars rather than five is that I was forced to buy a new holster to accommodate them. The front sight was like a fishhook when drawing from my Crossbreed OWB holster; it snagged every time. If you have a holster that covers the entire barrel, you should be fine.
