All sights in this collection are sets of front and rear sight.
Which sights to choose
-
You use a red dot: co-witness sights. They are tall enough to see through the red dot window.
-
You shoot with iron sights only: low sights. They sit close to the slide.
-
You want to set the elevation: semi-adjustable sights. You set windage by moving the sight in the dovetail.
-
You want to zero for your ammunition or shoot competition: adjustable sights. You set windage and elevation with screws.
The sights in detail
-
Adjustable sights from Zendl, in fiber optic. You set windage and elevation with screws, so you can zero them for your ammunition.
-
Co-witness sights from Angry Bear and Night Fision, in blank, fiber optic and tritium. They are taller than standard sights, so you see them through the window of a red dot on the slide.
-
Low sights from Angry Bear, in blank, fiber optic and tritium. They sit close to the slide and suit shooting with iron sights only.
-
Semi-adjustable co-witness sights from LPA, in fiber optic, luminescent dots and white dots. They are tall enough for a red dot and you set the elevation with a screw.
-
Other sight sets from Zendl, in fiber optic.
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 also fit all PDP series: Walther PDP Compact series, Walther PDP Full Size series, Walther PDP Steel Match series, Walther PDP F-series and Walther PDP Pro series.
Sight picture
Blank sights have a plain grooved surface without any marks. Fiber optic collects daylight and shines brightly at the range and in competition. Tritium glows in the dark without charging. Luminescent dots charge in light and glow for a while in the dark. White dots 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 all sights of this brand, see Sights for Walther models.
Frequently asked questions
Can I change the sights on my Walther PDP at home?
