An item not getting a lot of attention is the XS sights line of Big Dots for the Ruger SP101. We would have been unaware of this sight, but a customer brought it to our attention. In fact, when we called a distributor about it, they said XS didn’t make a sight for the SP101. However, after talking to XS, we were told that it was the same sight that is made for the S&W J-frame models.
When our package arrived from the distributor it was clearly marked for the S&W J-frame and the Ruger SP101. We will putting pictures up in a few weeks of the SP101 customization, but in the meantime if you are interested in adding a tritium big dot to your J-frame or SP101, contact us. The sight runs about $65.
With the XS sight on the Ruger SP101, do you just remove the roll pin on the OEM front sight and then install the front sight using the same pin, or do you have to apply an epoxy to help retain the sight?
James, Thanks for the comment. I decided your question deserved a little better treatment so I posted a response on the site. Here is the link:
