Default Night sight for SW1911PC Commander

I have a SW1911PC Commander sized which is my daily carry gun (at least in winter). I like a tritium night sight, preferably green, for the front as I find I focus better on it. My issue is in trying to order the correct part as the 1911s are all different. Can someone please help worth the correct sights to order. I will order both front and rear if necessary, but would prefer front only (I like no dots on the rear sight).

I have those sights, well the correct model, on my 9mm Shield and they are FANTASTIC! Wanted to get them for my full size S&W 1911 and got no help from Smith or the sight manufacturer. Measured the dovetails on the slide and got what I thought would be the right sights based on the published dimensions. After meticulous fitting they were on and looked great. Problem was now POI was 3" high at 25 feet. Not acceptable. Have put the original sights back on and I'm disappointed but much happier at the same time.

The dove tail cuts in the Smith slides is not a standard 1911 cut, good luck with finding some of those Tru-Glo that fit. If you are successful, please let us know which ones worked for you as I would be willing to try again.
