Refresh your 1911 with the United Defense 1911 Rear Sight, a drop-in steel replacement built for the standard GI-pattern dovetail found on full-size and Government model slides. The square combat notch pairs cleanly with any standard 1911 front blade, giving you a fast, unambiguous sight picture when it counts. Horizontal serrations across the rear face cut glare from sun and overhead lighting, keeping your focus on the front sight instead of fighting reflections.
Machined from steel and finished in matte black, this rear sight shrugs off recoil, holster wear, and repeated re-installations without deforming or corroding. It is drift-adjustable for windage—simply tap left or right in the dovetail to zero your load—and the low-snag beveled edges clear cover garments and holster mouths on the draw. Installation is straightforward with a sight pusher or brass punch, making it a solid pick for refreshing a worn factory sight, building a custom 1911, or upgrading a budget pistol to a more usable rear notch.
Ships to U.S. addresses only. Order the United Defense 1911RS today and put a clean, glare-free combat sight picture back on your 1911.
