Are .010 pins very bright?

If you're looking for a high end sight....I haven't seen a reason to buy some of the others mentioned in this thread, either. What would you be paying for?

What you're tyically paying for is micro-adjustment. If you're gonna pay the extra $$....make sure you're getting some bang for your buck.

I received a MBG flashpoint that washington hunter mentioned earlier , it is a great sight , very bright , but not to bright , the photo chromatic pin cover works great , another plus , and improvement over their duskdevil model is a metal pingaurd , I broke a pingaurd last year on my duskdevil ,or should I say the airlines did , they were plastic

To me Spott Hogg and Copper John new Dead Nut 2 are two of the better high end sights.

My thoughts as well. I was really liking the G5 sights and a buddy of mine bought them before I could. Good thing he did and not me:). The pins weren't as bright as I was expecting. I too am working on getting the Copper John Dead Nuts 2 Supreme, however, they seem to be pretty hard to come by. I talked to a person at CJ and they said they are back up with orders.

I think I am going to end up going with the spot hogg hunter

I ended up trying out a buddies bow with the 5 pin version on it and Iliked it, was nice and bright and easy to aim...even though the bow wasnt set up for me at all. I dont want to wait for a dead nuts, and I have always liked the spot hoggs.

I will let everyone know how it shoots when I get it put on.

Oh, and THANKS AGAIN to everyone for the great advice!

The G5 ME sight isn't high end because of the fibers.

Why the G5 costs what it does it in the materials, simple micro adjustments,ease of adjustment, and other features.

IMO it is one of the absolute easiest sights to adjust and lock in place. It is made of magnesium so it weighs 1/2 as much as comprable aluminum sights, Itis third axis adjustable, has built in rubber arrow bumper, Bubble level, and a few other features that and very handy.

The reason the ME modelfibers aren'tthat bright is that the fibers go into the hole for the LED. The adjustablility is great on the sight and if you really want bright fibers you go aftermarket. People do that with even the Spott Hogs.I shot mine for a few months with the OEM fibers without any issues indoors. Outdoors they were bright enough.

I like my ME and would buy another one just for the adjustablility and then lock down features of the sight. Once set the pins aren't going anywhere.

However, it's your money and your choice what to buy.
