Meprolight USA Tru-Dot Night Sight Set for Colt 1911 Government/Commander
KFF Defense presents the Meprolight USA Tru-Dot night sight system, a combat-proven enhancement designed to optimize target acquisition and engagement under low-light conditions. These self-illuminated sights deliver a distinct advantage, increasing hit probability against stationary or moving targets when ambient light is compromised.
The TRU-DOT system establishes a consistent three-dot aiming reference. This design ensures that the shooter’s aiming point remains identical in appearance and location across all light conditions, from bright daylight to total darkness. This eliminates the need for transitional aiming techniques, enabling rapid, instinctive sight alignment without interruption.
Engineered as direct replacement components for factory sights, Meprolight’s self-illuminated night sights integrate seamlessly into the Colt 1911 Government/Commander platform. Installation typically requires minor modifications, allowing for a straightforward upgrade process to enhance weapon utility.
Key Features

The green tritium front dot and green tritium rear dots, framed by white outlines, optimize visibility and target acquisition in any light environment without requiring batteries or external power.
Optimized Sight Picture
The three-dot configuration offers a clear and intuitive sight picture, facilitating rapid eye alignment and target focus. This system reduces acquisition time and enhances accuracy in dynamic shooting scenarios.
Robust Construction
Manufactured to withstand rigorous use, these sights maintain zero and perform reliably in demanding operational environments, ensuring consistent performance over extended periods.
Direct Integration
