Can moveable sights be quiet?
 
Thinking of going to a moveable sight. Looking for a round aperture, single pin, fiber optic, sliding sight. Like Tru-Glo, Cobra, HHA, Impact Cosmic. I am sort of a quiet fanatic. I shoot a Mathews Ultra 2, 28" , 60#. Are these sights as quiet as a simple fixed sights? Assume shooting with the thumb screw tight.

thanks for the insight,

Dayton

I have an Impact Cosmic and did have it on my Ultra 2 for a while. It' s as quiet as anything you' ll find. It does have 2 lock downs, which makes it a little slower to adjust , but it doesn' t come loose either.

TAKE A LOOK AT THE SIGHTMASTER LINE. VERY GOOD FIBER OPTICS AND AS QUIET AS CAN BE.[8D]

Like CBM I have the Impact Cosmic......Awesome sight....Very bright, very quiet.....The 2 locking points are kind of a pain but I shoot it as a 1 pin sight.....I don' t see it as being a problem though....

I shoot a Cobra easy slide sight
I find it a great little sight with an exceptional windage adjustment
Oh yes and It' s quiet

I have the Cobra EZ Slide as well, on my MQ1. It is very quiet, and is a great sight.

Another vote for the Cobra easy slide, just love the tool less windage adj., awesome sight. Only negative thing I can say about it is the pin isn' t bright enough in low light, that' s why I think I' m going to buy the new easy slide with the 2ft. of fiber optic wrapped around the hood like the Impact Cosmic. I will definitely stick with the Cobra for the tool less windage adj., great sight!

I tried a cobra two yeras ago and it was very loud in my opinion. My brother is using the Impact cosmic with the double lockdown and it is very quiet. The only reason I won' t use a movable sight is that they are in to close to the bow and I like my sights to be out from the bow at least a little.
