Here are pictures of Springfield's very own fiber optic sites. They do all the manufacturing themselves. This is what you get from their Custom XD shop. This is my first time posting pictures, I hope the links work.

They look pretty good. I don't have any details other than these pictures.

The front looks like a Dawson. Perhaps the rear is also a Dawson, exclusive to SA.

I had asked Deb about that and she was insistent that this was Springfield's own design. It is the standard sight with their XD Carry Pro Package. I asked what it would cost to substitute the Heine night sights and she said it would cost $45 extra...yikes1!

It looks like this Springfield sight is the reason this complete Carry Pro package is a good deal at $215. I wish I could have had them add this package to my XD40 while they had it, but it would mean an additional 2 - 4 week wait...yikes2!

It looks like I will have to find a trusted vendor around here somewhere to get a trigger and new gunsight job. Mmmmm I wonder where I could go??? As soon as the gun is returned I will check it out with a few hundred rounds, then a few more hundred rounds, and then look for custom mods.
