Page 4 of 4 - Crosman Williams Rear Sight, Notched Reviews

Accuracy, adjusts well and repeats. Installs easily. Good price vs. direct from Williams.

Height adjustment is bottomed out on breech at zero. Was looking for a peep sight. May glue piece from Hy-Viz to front sight for elevation, brightness.

I mounted this sight on my Crosman 1701. Solid all metal construction--no plastic! Windage and elevation knobs have a positive 1/4 MOA click adjustment and are lockable with set screws. If your are applying the marksmanship fundamentals, this sight will move your groups exactly where you want them.

I would change screw on top from a slot to an allen or torx

When mounting the sight, the screw on top needs to be snug but not tight--just enough so the dovetail block under it can still move. If not, any slack will translate into a cant to one side when the side screws are tightened against the dovetail block.

Fits the 1701P pistol perfect and makes a great combo with that pistol. Solid construction. Good target knobs.

Price is a little high.

Easy to mount and adjust. I put it on my Crosman Silhouette PCP Air Pistol and it works fine.

Include instructions.

Micrometer adjustments are very smooth. Solid construction and light weight.

The allen wrench required for mounting is not included and it's a very small wrench. Sight is a tad bit expensive, but the quality is undeniable. Very solid construction.

I mounted this on a 2300KT from the Crosman Custom shop. The same problem will apply with any standard 2240 with Crosman's steel breech.

I had to order two parts from Crosman for a 2300S model (which comes stock with the Williams sight) in order for the sight to function when mounted just behind the breech:
1. A longer bolt handle from 2300S (Part 2300-123)- Without it, the bolt handle will not clear the sight. I ordered the bolt handle from Crosman. I had to order the whole bolt assembly because they won't just sell the handle. Cost was $10.00 plus shipping. It is interchangeable with the .22 bolt, even though the 2300S is a .177 cal.

2. A taller front sight post from 2300S (Part 2300-028)- Without this, the sights will not adjust low enough to sight in. Crosman sent me this for free. It is a few cm taller (enough to get a good adjustment range for different pellets) , and the threads also fit the black muzzle you get when ordering from the custom shop. They sent me this for free. I'm not sure if the standard 2240 plastic front ramp sight is tall enough, but I don't think it is.

Both of these items can be avoided if you mount the sight with the elevation adjustment hanging from the back of the gun about 3/4". However, when mounted this far back, the notched blade is blurry in your vision, and the notch appears way to wide in order to center the front post easily. It also looks funny, and would be easily knocked out of adjustment.

All metal. Smooth clicks. Micrometer adjustments. Absolutely no rocking or slack. A truly professional sight.

The sights are straight black. I bought some NiteSiter glow stickers for night hunting with my 1322 and now i wish the rats would breed faster :D

This thing is 2-1/8'' wide and 1-5/8'' top to bottom. It hangs off my 1322's steel breech like a car wing but it looks A W E S O M E ! Also, it gives me better leverage to pump now that the scope is gone.

I highly, highly recommend this if you're a pistol packer :)

very precise! you can walk your shots right to the bullseye!

Brianag618; The Williams Micro Adjustment Sight is perfect! It lets you walk in each and every shot, with each click of the Adjustment Knobs. Works great on the Crosman Model 2300S, with plenty of room for the loading Bolt to slide by. All you need is a bench rest to sight it in and your good to go.

Would change nothing with the sight. Need to use the longer bolt handle found on the Crosman Model 2300S for the bolt handle to clear if using it with the model "T" Pistol.

Problem using the sight on and with the Crosman Model 2300T. The loading Bolt HANDLE is to SHORT to clear the sight on the right side. You will need to mount the sight a little futher back on the pistol then normal. When doing this USE CAUTION when screwing down the small bolts that hold the sight in place, you could very easly bend the front part of the clamp if you do not line it up and the clamp screws into the old mounting sight hole, causing it to bend and may be break. Need to get the longer "S" model handle for the bolt to clear the sight properly. Even with this minor problem it is still a great sight to use, once you get it mounted, can not go wrong.

Exalent sight for the serious shooter. The Micro clicks let you walk each and every shoot (left to right and up and down) into the bulls eye using a bench rest or sand bags, till you get your sights perfect. Very easy to mount using to set screews on the side and then locking it in with the top screew. After you have it sighted in, there are set screews to lock the sight in place. Very pleased with mine. Using mine on the Crosman model 2300S and T, great groups after sighted in.

nothing

There is a slidding bracket on the bottom that fits into the mounting slotts. Only slightly lousen the top slide screew just enough to let the set screews (2) on the side to set the mount into the guns notch, do not force the set screews, then tighten the top screew and your done. CAUTION: do not force the side set screews or the allen wrench will strip out
