To keep it simple I basically need a 6 pin wrapped sight .019 and the sight has to be capable to mount a quiver bracket...any ideas??
-Truglo makes a 5 pin and I could add a sixth
-Cobra boomslang (unsure if you can mount a bracket)?
-Copper john (unsure if you can mount a bracket)?
-Apex (unsure if you can mount a bracket)?
Note: the reason it has to be 6 is because I want to shoot past 60 yards, however my current bow set up does not allow enough pin seperation for a 7 pin sight.

why does it have to be wrapped??
my Viper isnt wrapped and im not sure why people demand they want a wrapped sight...my guess is they want brightness...but the viper is brighter than my truglo which was wrapped...
if your buying quality, id say dont limit yourself to wrapped unless theres other concerns...just my thoughts though...
ive only have the truglo and the viper on my bow...
for long distance, or shooting period,i wont have it any other way than my viper...i got a .019 ontop for hunting and .010 for the rest...got 5 on there now but since i got it, i havent had time to dial in the 50 and 60yd pins so im not sure how many more i can fit...but i added the .019 ontop and it was a pretty easy install...something that isnt going to be so easy with a wrapped sight...

Well, of the brands I have compared (spott hogg, truglo, cobra, copper john) of all of them if they were wrapped those pins were always brighter and I hunt here in the west in the early season when you see the deer before first light and after the sun sets, so the brighter the better.....
I will look into the viper sight......and if i did get the truglo wrapped i would add the last pin as a non-wrap pin.

blake- those sites would not work well with me hunting out west mostly still hunting and some spot and stalk. i need the pins to be ready without haveing to move the pin too much.
