Title: Williams Fire Sights / red dot info please
Post by: gatrkyhntr70 on August 09, 2014, 08:52:43 AM
Ive used the truglo mag. gobble pro sights on alot of turkey guns Ive set up.
On my 870sm I would get alot of abuse in the face from patterning. Ive put a reddot on a few guns and found that with the sight being slightly higher I was able to get myself back and avoid the abuse and only get the recoil on my shoulder.
The williams sights look like the sit higher than the truglo's so I would like to know if anyone has had any simular experience and how the recoil is with the williams fire sights vs. the reddot.

    I got the Williams on several of my guns (AWESOME SIGHT!!) and I get no cheek slap at all.

Here are the Williams sights on my Mossberg 930 Turkey.  They work great and I haven't been hit in the cheek yet.  The only thing that bothers me about them is how they attach.  There is just a tiny bit of the bottom clamp that grips the rib.  It looks like the Tru-glo sights would be more secure squeezing from the side.  With that said, I've not had any issues at all.  So far, so good.  Very bright as well.
