Default RE: Anyone use the G5 Optix sights

I don't own one currently but was looking very hard at them when they initially came out. I am a big fan of G5's products and couldn't wait to actually see one in person.

When I did, I was pretty disappointed. For the cost of the sight I would have expected more. The pins did not seem to be very high quality (the holders not the fiber itself), adjustment seemed not all that great, and I absoloutely hated the blue level.

In the end I went out and bought another Spot Hogg.

i own the sight and i love it accually. I found it easy to sight in and the floating smart pin is a nice asset. one of the things i liked the most was how light, but yet tough this sight is, oh and yes..a little spendy but IMO well worth it.
