Crosman Williams Rear Sight, Notched Reviews

Tell us what you think
Very well made, easy to precisely zero your point-of-aim (POI), and a pleasure to work with.
It would be nice if there was a simple way to adjust the cant. If your breech is a few degrees off level, the wide Williams sight will exaggerate the issue and appear to lean left or right, depending. There is a remedy for this which I won't go into here -- search the crosman forums or ask me in the comment option below my review.
Another reviewer here stated it quite well, but I'd like to reiterate his points regarding mounting this sight on a 2300t or 2300kt from the custom shop. You WILL need/want the extended bolt handle that comes standard on the 2300s. Otherwise, you'll have to mount the sight hanging way off the back of the gun. If you have a muzzle device, you will also need the taller front sight post from the 2300s in order to have enough elevation adjustment. (I can't speak to the blade sight and whether it's tall enough.)
When someone orders a 2300KT with a Williams sight from the custom shop, Crosman NEEDS to include the longer handle and taller sight. Without those parts, they're sending you a gun/sight combination that is virtually unusable. I've discussed this at length with Crosman and they tell me they are addressing it. For now, just call them and they'll send the parts for $12.23 shipped.
All things considered, it's an excellent sight and I'd get it again.
This Williams Receiver sight is a good design and well made. I've used this type on several different target pistols and rifles. For this reason alone it is well worth 5 stars. However, see below...........
I bought it for use on a Crosman 1322 air pistol for which it is totally unsuitable. There isn't enough range of vertical movement to adjust to it from shooting high by an inch or more. It is useless on a 1322. Period!
PyramydAir is a good company and I've always been pleased with their products and overall service. I will continue to give then my business and this is the only time one of their product descriptions let me down.

Easy to use, works very well!
just barely hangs on the end of 1377 with metal breech !
nice quality piece, It fits the Diana Airbug well
lower price
Large knobs, easy to use. made me a better shot than I am
I like the firearms grade production of this micrometer adjustment sight. The gradual, positive click adjustment allows for pinpoint dial in of the sight.
Being the first pistol sight of this kind I've used, I have limited experience and opinions about how it may be changed. I think it's great as far as I'm concerned.
It took me minimum effort to sight my pistol. I did have to paint the front sight of the 1701P with fluorescent paint before I could get the correct sight picture. Probably because I'm about half blind. Either way I think it would be advantageous to do so.
This is a precision open sight with nice easy click adjustments. It mounts perfectly to my Crosman 1701P Silhouette.
The sight works perfect. I wouldn't change anything.
Unfortunately, mine shipped with the wrong size Allen hex wrench. The wrench was too big for the tiny set screws on the sight. I ended up getting a Wiha mini hex set to find that I needed a .050 size wrench to adjust the set screws that allow it to mount on my pistol. It was probably just an odd mixup at the factory when they packed the sight. I deducted one star for that.
Nice adjustments
Send the correct Allen wrench with the sight so it can be mounted.
It comes with an Allen wrench that was too large. Thank goodness one of the range guys had a full set
Like the easy mount to dovetail slots and nice click adjustment.
I would make the blade part of the sight taller
This sight is heavy-duty and precise.

Works exactly as I wanted. Easy to mount, and the click adjustment on it is dead on. I mounted it on a Crosman 1701 Silhouette pistol. I rotated the front sight about half way and the sight window is exactly what I like. Seems to hold true after quite a few shots. Great combo.
The mounting screws worked fine and do seem to hold, but that is the one area I would beef up just a little.
Take you time to mount it and play with the front sight until you get the picture you like.

I got a Williams target sight on a Crosman 2300S. Put is on a Diana Stormrider... Quick sight pattern and accurate.
would not change anything about the sight except making the cost LOWER>
If you have a Williams, put it on another rifle. Give it s try. It works for me.
