    Slider sight with sight tape magnifier?

    My eyeballs are catching up with my age! I have an HHA slider and have trouble reading the numbers at low light conditions.

    I see that the King Pin sight has a magnifier on the sight tape area. I'll prolly go that route if I can't find another option.

    Are there any other options out there? My search has come up empty.

    I just turn my binoculars upside down and read it that way!

      That's an option.....I was thinking about gluing a jewelers loop to my eye also.

          A cheap pair of reading glasses.

            A lot of options actually.
            Axcel makes a magnifier for their sights, it's an add on.
            CBE makes magnifier as well.
            Sure-Loc makes a magnifier.
            The Coffey sight tape magnifier is designed to fit any wire indicator sight.

            If you are shooting a target sight type scale the CR sight scale magnifier is really good, and it will also fit the Sure-Loc.

                    IMO a magnifier, clarifier or any other glass object on a hunting is just a something that will eventually fog up or get dew on it keeping you from seeing through it

                      Update......Picked up an HHA Kingpin with the magnifier. That's just what the doctor ordered! Works perfect and easily to read the numbers......also has a bracket for a light on the dial.

                          Yep. That's what I use... That 4x magnifier lens on the front of the sight as an adder is a great addition also if you haven't done that!

                              Thats an option too here in Texas.......I don't think its legal in NM for some un-godly reason during archery elk!
