The new front sight allows a better sight pic & thus better accuracy. I would think Brownells would have an original front sight should you wish to change it?

If you decide to change your front sight, and want to do it yourself or order yourself, just remember, Springfields have a medium tenon:

-early Colt .058"
-Springfield .082"
-newer Colt .125"
