I bought those mounts for my 1400 and they wouldn't work -- why they quit grooving the receiver to accept .22 type mounts is beyond me as these guns are very accurate and fun -- the mounts above are for an early Sheridan I believe almost positively and Crossman's barrel is different -- Jim Keller

I would think if you had the predrilled holes on top of reciever the rear sight would fit. As for the front sight they all need to be silver soldered in place. But any good gunsmith can do that for about 30-50 dollars depending on where you are at

I checked the dovetail on the gun and it appears to be level so what I did is take the movable clamp on the sight off. Then I carefully filed the bottom making sure I kept it flat on the file. I did this a little at a time reinstalling it and testing until the cant was gone. The sight is a nice sight is nice but a better mount and adjustment arrows would have been nice.

Check out the pin underneath the sight and also check to make sure you are aligning in properly (which I'm sure you have). There are only two other options after that if it does not work: 1.) Try to get a new rear sight or 2.) Maybe...just maybe, the picatinny rail you have is not compatible with the sight. Although if that were true then you would probably also be having trouble with the front sight. Good luck...

Try going to Pyramydair.com and searching for scope mounts and accessories and you should be able to find an adapter to allow you to mount to your Crosman.

Try eBay or you can try Crosman themselves, although I doubt they sell individual replacement parts for guns like these as I've never seen them sold. If anything you might just have to get a new one, but IMO, if you want a cheap gas pistol around the same price, get the TSD NBB 1911. The plastic is thicker and less flimsy so its less likely to break. I've had mine since 2010 and it still works fine, only piece that broke so far was part of the rear sight

I used this one. So far it's worked great on all my Glocks and M&P's. http://www.sightpusher.com You'll also need a front sight tool. Amazon has them.

Yep, lots of problems with the OEM scope. I am currently looking to put a simple rail system on it to avoid the ring issue.

You should try the rod first that came with your gun, if not you could risk opening it up or try sending it in for repair

I've taken mine off several times , you're probably not loosening it enough. It should get loose enough to just lean it to the side and it will come right off. If that doesn't work take it to a gunsmith , it'll cost you next to nothing for him to remove it. That's way too good of an Optic to play around and damage it.

You shouldnt have a problem breaking the loctite. But on the other hand.. You probobly wont ever remove the sights :)

Hi PA. I would not remove the front sight. It is designed to be used as a backup just in case the batteries go out on the red dot.

I put the Strike fire on my AR-10 and went out of adjustment within a 100 rounds and cant get it back on. I think it shook itself apart on the inside. need to send back

For the front sight you will need a front sight tool, and that is something you will have to buy. As for the rear, i had to flip it over with a screwdriver.

Mine sighted right in no problem. Try remounting it and use a bore sighter, if you can't line it up without using too much adjustment it could be a problem with the sight itself.

Any front sight will work fine. I use the stock M4 gas block/front sight. I can look through my red-dot and sight righjt through it. If the red dot gets broken, I can pop it off and use the Matech and stock front sight. Works great.

No....look up the sights for that gun. I have one too. Requires a different sight.
