HiViz SF2015 LiteWave Springfield 1911 Front Sight Green Fiber Optic

The HiViz SF2015 LiteWave front sight transforms target acquisition on Springfield 1911 pistols with bright green fiber optic technology. This precision-engineered sight replacement delivers faster sight picture alignment in varying light conditions compared to traditional black iron sights.

What Makes This Different

The LiteWave system captures available light through a proprietary fiber optic rod that glows bright green, creating a distinct aiming point visible in daylight and low-light scenarios. Unlike painted dots that fade over time, the fiber optic element maintains consistent brightness without batteries or external power sources. The sight body construction uses aircraft-grade aluminum with a protective steel base for durability under recoil stress.

Key Features

• Green fiber optic rod provides bright, consistent sight picture in all lighting conditions
• Direct replacement for factory Springfield 1911 front sights with standard dovetail cut
• Aircraft-grade aluminum construction with steel reinforcement base
• Interchangeable LitePipe system allows color changes without sight removal
• Low-profile design maintains holster compatibility with most leather and Kydex holsters
• Precision-machined dovetail ensures secure, wobble-free installation
• Protective sight guards shield fiber optic element from impact damage

Range performance shows measurably faster target acquisition compared to standard three-dot configurations, particularly beneficial for competitive shooting and tactical applications. The bright green aiming point remains visible against varied backgrounds where black sights can disappear. Installation requires basic gunsmith tools and knowledge of proper sight fitting procedures. The fiber optic element resists breakage from normal handling and moderate impacts.
