I just bought a new EAA Witness 10mm compact and the fixed sights are shooting low.  I'd like to replace rear sight with an adjustable set without any significant gunsmithing.  If anyone has replaced their fixed sights on one of these pistols, can you recommend a sight?

Thanks

I have an older Witness P compact 45 that shot low. I called EAA and they don't make a replacement rear sight. This is what I did, kinda hacky but It works real well.

I used a Champion brand Novak style adjustable rear and then had to file a flat for it on the slide, behind the dovetail for the sight body. Then, I had Dawson Precision make their first front sight for them for this gun. After that, they started listing them on their website. It works, kind of took the long way around, but it works...

I just bought a 10mm that also shoots low.  I had a 45 similar to the one pictured above, back then EAA sold me a variety of rear sights of varying heights, it took the tallest one to correct the issue.  I figured I would just use the remaining ones I had, but the 10mm has a wider dovetail that sits much farther forward on the slide than the old ones did.  I'll post up if I find anything that fits!

I've put LPA adjustable sights on both Witness pistols I had. Got em from Brownell's, but I forget how much. About $60, IIRC.

I hope that the two I just bought will shoot "okay"......
