Default Anyone seen the new sight from Toxonics?

I was just browsing around on Keystone Country Store's sight and stumbled across this. Pretty salty, but here is the specs given:

A5 pin sight, 38mm guard with bubble level and 1.625" coated lens. Features micro adjust ball-click locking system, laser engraved scales and has .019 pins with 3X magnification.

Here's a pic

Looks like a very rugged, highly adjustable sight. What was the price?

Frank.

I think it is either the M50 or M38 and they cost $149.99 on Tox's web site.
Of course the lens and ring are extra

I would tend to agree. Considering the looks of the design I think it would be an excellent site for 3D and even possibly hunting. I have always had a high opinion of Toxonics products and would not hesitate to buy another....I just need to convince our shop to get more in.

Toxonics are excelent sights , I have a couple hybreds and an alluminator . Got a question for ya , wound't that bump you out of hunter class and you would have to shoot from the far stakes for 3d ? I thought 4 pins and no lenses were allowed for hunter class .

That is true with the IBO but I think ASA you can have a lens in hunter A or what ever it is called.

Thats the M50.... I have been using Toxonic sights for many years and I really like them..... You are correct ASA Hunter Class does allow magnification, but not allowed in womens hunter class.

These are the same as the sights they make for Hoyt (MicroElite). Awesome sights but try before you buy. We are seeing issues with them having enough windage (left) adjustment on some bows.

JeffB,

I have had this problem on my Patriot D/C (Not enough windage "left" adjustment). Have any ideas you always seem to be right on.

Thanks,
