'70 Series Colt 1911A1 .056" Tenon Staked Ramped Front Night Sight
The M1911-A1 Series 70 tritium front night sight is a direct replacement for the Colt Series '70 Gold Cup pistol.
This sight has what is called a ramp style blade. It has a 60 degree ramp on the rear of the blade. This "snag free" profile makes it ideal for defensive shooting and holstering. This front works perfectly with any of our Elliason and Accro rear sights.
The blade is 0.210" tall x 0.118" wide and has a 0.56" tenon to fit a '70 Series Colt. The green tritium insert is made and installed by Trijicon, is 0.077" in diameter and it has a bright white outline painted around it.
Please note that this sight it made to pair with SOME of the Kensight adjustable rears. These include the Bo-Mar®, Rollo, LPA®, and ELEVATION ONLY adjustable DAS (Novak®) sights. It will not work with any fixed or adjustable MIL-SPEC rears. If you have a fixed MIL-SPEC, the height required is .150" tall (Kensight will offer this size by the end of August 2017). If you have an adjustable MIL-SPEC, the front height required is a MINIMUM of .350" tall (Kensight does not offer the .350" tall front in a night sight).
BE CAREFUL ON THE INSTALL! The tritium tube inside of the sight IS GLASS and it can break.
