Overview
The Trijicon HD XR Night Sights are engineered for advanced target identification and engagement, specifically addressing the operational demands of law enforcement and proficient civilian shooters. This system refines the capabilities of the original HD Night Sights, providing a decisive advantage for precise shot placement at extended distances.
Key Features
Optimized Target Acquisition
A critical design element of the HD XR series is the reduced width of the front sight post. This narrower profile significantly expands the shooter’s field of view, facilitating rapid target identification and expediting engagement cycles. The enhanced sight picture allows for more precise verification of impact points, particularly beneficial at increased ranges.
Illumination System
Utilizing self-luminous green tritium lamps, these sights provide consistent visibility in low-light and no-light conditions. The front sight incorporates a high-visibility yellow photoluminescent outline to draw the eye, while the rear sight features a black outline with green tritium inserts, mitigating distractions and maintaining focus on the front sight post.
Durability and Reliability
Trijicon’s HD XR Night Sights are constructed to withstand rigorous operational environments. The green tritium lamps are backed by a manufacturer’s 12-year warranty from the date of manufacture, guaranteeing sustained illumination performance.
Precision Fitment
These sights are specifically configured for Sig Sauer P225, P226, and P228 pistol models chambered in 9mm and .357SIG, assuming a factory standard #8 Front/#8 Rear sight configuration. For optimal performance and secure installation, professional gunsmithing is recommended.
