    Aspire for more, just don't set your sights so high that you miss out on what's right in front of you.

    There is a reason they are that price. Had one come into the shop and when you tighten down the wing nut it tilts the sight. If you buy it, please flip the bracket that bolts onto the bow upside down and mount it. That way when you tighten up the wing nut it tightens it from the bottom making it more square to the bow.

    That is a good price tho even with that problem. I just don't care for horrizontal pins.

    I checked out many APEX & TruGlo sights & those stinking pin where so bent. I've even seen some that where not even the same length so the windage could never be right.

    Had no idea of the quality issues. Sorry guys, just wanted to pass on what looked like a very good price.

    Lot of times you get what you pay for something and this just might be the time.

    I have zero experience with Apex gear, or even truglo for that matter, just figured Midway way clearing them out or something to nock $90 off the price. If $40 would have been the regular price of the thing I would have assumed it wasn't exactly top of the line...

    We sell apex sights, but our top mid range sight that we sell is the Black Gold Flashpoint sight. Works great in all lighting conditions and is simple with none of the (micro adjustment crap) that can go wrong in the field.
