Cobra Sidewinder Sights
Just bought some of these sights off ebay today. They are the new 2005 model, 3 pin, wrapped fiber optic with a level. Does anyone use these sights? And what do you have to say about them, good or bad?
They were a great price and there are six of them left. The same seller is selling them for the same price, first come first serve. They were $34.99, new still in box.
Thanks

RE: Cobra Sidewinder Sights
Honestly, I think Cobra has better quality stuff than people give them credit for. Last year I had the Mini Venom 3 pin fiber sight from them and the fiber/pin quality was as good if not better than the copper john I have now and the entire sight was machined from aluminum. You can pick them up for anywhere from $20-$30 new on ebay now and will probably recommend for my father to get one on his new budget setup. They aren't the "cool" thing though so that is probably why we don't hear more about them.

Whackmaster. I noticed the same thing on one of my Cobras. The other four I have are OK, however.
IMHO almost all brands use screws that are too wimpy. Why don't they spend an extra nickel and provide us with sight screws that have some BEEF to them?
