Have any of you put different open sights on your RWS 54's, 52's or 48's? If so, what kinds/types, how and what did you do and how is it working out for you?

I have it scoped now. I sure wish all air rifles came with sights like the ones that come standard on Weihrauchs.Tight groups,Bob
Bob why did you choose that particular one?

Bob, that's what I would prefer...target knobs. To heck with fiddling around with screw drivers and such. Where does one look into getting them?
have a factory 54 and would prefer to not remove the plastic muzzle part but would like to remove that huge front sight post and replace it with something slimmer and as for the rear sight, I don't need something super match quality but something that is easy to use, sturdy adjustments and that can be used for accurate target shooting as well as hunting. Like a front sight post in pics 3, 5 and 7 seems good. And #4 and 6 look right for a rear sight. Just don't want to ask the family for any type of sights. So which would you suggest for a 54 and not scare my old lady into holding her purse tighter than it already is, lol
I had a Mendoza copy of the Williams with a target peep on my Model 54 and it worked great since the 54's front sight is vertically adjustable.
