XS Sights R3D 2.0 Night Sights for Springfield Echelon Pistols: First Look

XS Sights is now offering its popular R3D 2.0 night sights for Springfield Echelon pistols. Available with a green front dot sight, the R3D 2.0 is an upgrade for Echelon owners who want to acquire an easier point of aim, with greater visibility in any light.

“The Springfield Armory Echelon made a strong impression, and many owners are now looking to push its performance even further,” said Jeff King, Marketing Manager at XS Sights. “With our enhanced glow dot and refined R3D 2.0 design, shooters will notice faster target acquisition and greater confidence in every shot.”

This second-generation sight features bigger and brighter rear tritium dots than its predecessor. PVC rings surround the rear tritium dots for a more defined edge to improve sight picture and differentiate the front and rear sights. The EasyPress features eliminate the need for filing and hammering and reduce the force needed for installation by up to 50%. Designed with a BlackNitride surface finish, this treatment offers twice the corrosion resistance of traditional black oxide, ensuring durability and long-lasting performance.
