Thank you gentelmen, excellent information all.  :)
So after much review and checking out every site listed here and a about a hundred others (or more), I got a 7 pin Hog Hunter, and I absolutely love it. It was a tough decision between the Armortech and the Hog Hunter, these are both AWESOME sights, but in the end the Hog Hunter won out. Basically I picked the Hog Hunter because it had excellent adjustability, decreasing pin diameter (I like this a LOT) but most of all, the Hog Hunter has nice big sight guard so as I get older and my pins spread out I wont be buying a new sight again. That was the ONLY thing I didn't like about the Armortech, was the very small pin guard, on a 7 pin sight I would like it to be bigger, but as I said it was a VERY tough decision. The Hog Hunter I expect will be the last sight I will ever buy. Anyway thanks to all for the truly excellent information.  :hello:


Have a great day!!!

I also have the Montana black gold & like it a lot. Easy to adjust & stays solid. I like the feature where the cover turns colors in sun light to keep your pins evenly bright. Not sure of the scientific name. Good sights. Mike
