Thumbs up Hi Viz Paintball Sight Review

After Shiba-Kun posted about his snap on sight, I went to look for one and found the company that made them. For my setup, I purchased the dual sight for centerfeed markers.



Attaching the sight was a simple as snapping it on. It did not fit perfectly to the barrel, but it was enough that it did not fall off during play.



Even when not focusing on the sight, it was bright enough to give me somewhat of an assisted reference towards where my barrel was pointed.

It took some time to adjust to the sight. On fast paced games I did not notice it at all, but on games where I had a few seconds to pick someone off, I used the sight with success.

I used to have one of those on my Shocker Turbo. I liked it a lot but I shot my barrel plug once(yeah, back in the barrel plug days) and the Hi Viz shot off the gun like a Russian ejection seat out of a Mig and was never seen again.

Hahaha! That is a FANTASTIC analogy!

I too, would be interested in such device, trusting it requires minimal investment.

I know it can be a bit tricky, but if you Google "hi viz", hivizsights.com pops up at the top of the search results list.

Look for the Paintball Sights section of the website, and you should find what you're looking for.

They don't seem to sell the one that Shiba-Kun was given (single sight for right or left feed). I was able to find it on eBay from iiSports.com, where I bought a floor model for really cheap, as well as on their website.
