Sights for 1911 models made by Rock Island Armory

Here you'll find sights machined to fit the 1911 Rock Island Armory, with fitment set by the slide's specific factory sight cut.

A target-grade rear sight adds windage and elevation adjustment a factory fixed sight doesn't have, so zero can be tuned per load rather than accepted as a factory average - the difference that shows up in group size, not just first-shot placement.

Stocked as matched front-and-rear sets. Options include fiber optic, white dots, and luminescent dots.

Fiber optic front sights gather ambient light along a thin rod and glow at the tip - fast to find in daylight, which is why most competition shooters run one on the front post. White dots make the sights faster to acquire against varying backgrounds, while luminescent dots charge under ambient light to provide a glowing sight picture in low-light conditions.

For precision or target use, the fully adjustable rear sight matters more than the illumination choice - it is what actually lets you correct zero for a specific distance and load, with fiber optic simply making the front post easier to find in the process.

Sourced from LPA (Italy).
