Night Fision |
A title with "front sight" or "rear sight" means a single part. All other sights are sets of front and rear sight.
Which sights to choose
-
You want to zero for your ammunition or shoot competition: adjustable sights. You set windage and elevation with screws.
-
You want to keep your front sight: an adjustable rear sight alone.
The sights in detail
-
Adjustable rear sights from LPA, in blank, white dots and white lines. You keep your front sight and set windage and elevation on the rear sight with screws.
-
Adjustable sights from LPA, in fiber optic, luminescent dots and white dots. You set windage and elevation with screws, so you can zero them for your ammunition.
-
Other sight sets from Night Fision, in tritium.
How to zero adjustable sights
Shoot a group at a fixed distance. Move the rear sight in the direction you want the point of impact to move: to the right to move hits to the right, up to move hits up. Turn the screw a few clicks at a time and shoot again.
Fit
- They do not fit the Optics Ready variants.
- They also fit the Walther PPS, Walther Creed and Walther PPX.
Sight picture
Fiber optic collects daylight and shines brightly at the range and in competition. Blank sights have a plain grooved surface without any marks. Tritium glows in the dark without charging. Luminescent dots charge in light and glow for a while in the dark. White dots and white lines give contrast without glowing.
Installation
Most pistol sights sit in a dovetail. You drift the old sight out and the new one in with a sight pusher or a punch. See Installation tools.
For red dot mounts, see Red dot mounts for Walther P99. For all sights of this brand, see Sights for Walther models.
Frequently asked questions
Can I change the sights on my Walther P99 at home?
Yes, with a sight pusher or a punch. Drift the old sight out of the dovetail and push the new one in. If you do not have the tool, a gunsmith can do it for you.
Which sights should I choose for my Walther P99?
It depends on how you shoot:
-
You want to zero for your ammunition or shoot competition: adjustable sights. You set windage and elevation with screws.
-
You want to keep your front sight: an adjustable rear sight alone.
Do these sights fit both the classic and the Optics Ready variant?
No. They do not fit the Optics Ready variants.
Do I get both the front and the rear sight?
Yes, unless the title says "front sight" or "rear sight". Then you get only that part.
