I recently switched to a Copper John after my factory PSE broke. I was happy with the PSE except that it was all plastic but I had a $20 gift certificate to a local sporting goods store so I paid about $35-40 for the Copper John. I would say go for it if you can get that deal. I'm happy with mine so far....put it to the test with turkey in the rain and snow a few days after I bought it and it held up just fine. I just need to sight it in better to be draw my final conclusions on it.
