Title: HW77 rear sight options
Post by: gard72977 on August 17, 2014, 02:25:13 PM

I just bought a vintage HW77 with the 25mm piston. It does not have are rear sight. I want to shoot silhouette with it. I see that Williams makes a sight that mounts to the rail. What other options do I have.

I have been wanting one of these for a while. Cant wait to get it. I love to shoot open sight

  Make sure that whichever sight you look at will mount to a round topper receiver.

  Some of the aftermarket peep sights and such are designed to mount to a flat top rail, and will not work well with round recievers.

  Good luck.

  Did you grab that San Rafael 77 off of the Yellow? I noticed that it was minus the rear sight is why I ask.

   Nice rifle!!

I have used the Airforce sight on my 77. Works great with an HW front globe. https://www.pyramydair.com/product/airforce-adaptive-rear-target-sight-fits-most-10-meter-3-position?a=2237 (https://www.pyramydair.com/product/airforce-adaptive-rear-target-sight-fits-most-10-meter-3-position?a=2237)
Not a great picture but will give you a rough idea.
