Who has had their pins break or fibers break during crunch time? It is just getting hot and heavy here, and I get on stand the other day to find my middle pin really messed up in the fiber department. Vital Gear wraps 3 feet of fiber around each ring for every pin, and somehow every wrap of the middle pin was severed..leaving 3-4 separate strands of fiber on that ring. Must have caught on briars or something?

Anyway, not having a middle pin in low light conditions isnt that crucial, because if it is too dark for that pin, its too dark to be shooting that far. Either way, it is a major inconvenience and I cant send off the sights right now to be fixed.

So that gave me an excuse to buy new sights. I bought a set of the Vital Gear Pentagon sights, same angled pin setup as my current sight, just 5 pins instead of 3. It already comes in a green, yellow, green color scheme...so when it gets in Ill slap it on and sight it in one afternoon. This will let me send in my old sights to get fixed and have as a spare.


Anyone else ever experience similar hitches in equipment during prime time?[:'(]
