Hi all,
Bought a 3D printer recently. Been having loads of fun with it.
Stumbled across this: PrusaPrinters which was somebody making a 3d printable approximation of the AGF Technic-15 sight where the vertical rail is mounted directly on the riser and the sight pin bar extends out from that, so in reverse to a normal recurve sight.
Ignoring the shortcomings and fragility of a 3d printed version, looking at the AGF made me wonder why more sights are not made in the same design. With modern carbon fibre, it would be possible to make the extender rod incredibly light and non bendable to remove one of the more obvious potential flaws.
AGF term it as removing vibration, which from someone that has one of the SF Carbon sights with so many screws that I have to constantly check, I can definitely see the attraction of.
Any ideas as to why you don't see more of these designs available?
