Anyone have one or tested one out? I have checked them out on the G5 website and read a review from Xtreme bowhunting world magazine and seems to get high praise. any feedback would be great.

I was looking at them and all the others out at Cabelas and it's definitely a well built sight. The only question I had is if the sight adjustments can be locked down or not. They also seemed to bind a little, but who knows what's happened to one out on the floor at Cabelas. It and the Spot-Hogg sights seemed to be the best built sights on display. I still like my Toxonics much, much better though.

I have the ME on my SB and so far, love it. I've heard about some noise issues from others but am getting no noise from mine. The gang adjustment is made by turning an allen 1/4 turn and then turning the up/down or sideways knob with your hand - very easy! The individual pins are adjusted by 1/4 turn w/allen on one screw, then another adjusts by turning allen up or down. (I make it sound much more complicated than it really is!) This is a four pin sight with the bottom (long range) pin totally adjustable "on the fly" without any tools. The pins seem very bright and the light works well for very low light.

And I've tried most of the other top selling brands and like this one - it'll be on my bow for hunting this year.

I had a LE and sold it for a far better Sword sight. I didnt like the way it adjusted on my Switchback, plus it had .029 pins.

I'd throw out a Dutch comment but feel that would be inappropriate.:evil:

If you're looking for a better site, give me a call, let me know what you want, and I'll shoot you some ideas.

By the way...this is what I'm talking about:

Gotcha, thanks Bryan....and yes i did look at the price but figure it's about time I actually invest in some good quality products-seeing you set me up with such a good deal on the bow and all.
