    After-market open sight for benjamin/sheridan pistols?

    Hi folk. Has anyone ever seen a better open sight which might fit instead of the bent-steel affair fitted as standard to the Sheridan pump and CO2 pistols? My beef is the rather cludgey way you adjust them for windage- a proper indexed adjustable elevation and windage adjustment would be sooo much nicer.

    Rich.

    With the EB CO2 models I have found that there is not enough adjustment available anyway - probably the most disappointing thing about them.

    ... exactly- they're very crude. I'd have thought there were a market for Williams or Mendoza etc to come up with a compact rear notch with screwdriver adjustable indexing.

    Cool Peep sight

    I have a sheridan rifle, fitted with a williams peep sight fitted, allows good accuracy. Try the american web pages or the Nra web link

    Thanks- the Williams peep sights are cracking kit for rifles- and a peep sight works well when you have your eye close to the sight. The problem with the pistols is that there is no mounting rail (just a milled flat and screw hole on the receiver), and the rearsight would need to be pretty low profile to marry with the front blade height.

    Thanks for that, will take a look. Also going to scour standard fit rearsights for other pistols to see if there are any which might fit or capable of modification.
