This looks really good! I was a harsh critic of the shorter elevation bar on the RC II and I think this is a needed update. I really appreciate that the price seems to be very close to the previous model even though you added some new features. I mean, the sight scales sure are more effort to make compared to the old model. I still need to try it out myself, but for the moment, I don't see why the sight shouldn't be THE sight to recommend for recurve archers again, like the original Ultima was for a long time. We just placed a large order at SSA in Belgium, really looking forward to receiving them. Cudos to you guys!
Thank you for the comment! We do realize there was a certain amount of demand for the longer bar, this varies from country to country since many (like Japan) don't shoot longer distances anymore. But we are happy to hear you appreciate the change. We definitely tried to keep the price as low as possible, although of course materials and labor cost have risen. Shipment to SSA will be made very shortly, hope you get yours soon! Keep us up to date how you like them.
Thanks for the comment! We are shipping hundreds of these sights every month, but demand has been very high. Make sure to let your retailer know to order one for you in case you want it!
Hi, I just purchased the RCIII 520 and it came without any documentation and unmarked allen keys, not marked as Shibuya normally does. Is this the way they are packaged now?
Thank you for the comment. We are in the process of switching the product manuals to online only and produce printed material. We are ironing out some kinks with the RCIII manual, please refer to the RCII one in the meantime since most of the functionality is the same: www.shibuya-archery.com/_faq/rc2/rc2_02.pdf The marked wrenches are unfortunately no longer available from our vendor so we switched to the unmarked ones we had before.
Hello Shawn, thank you for the question. First off, unfortunately we have not been able to ship the CPX3 sights yet, we are hoping to catch up with backorders next month. Functionally, the CPX3 comes with laser-engraved metal sight tapes (please note only the reference scale is included, the rest is sold separately), the new ambidextrous bow mount, a slightly longer 4" elevation bar, and the new soft case has a larger pocket to accommodate scopes with sunshades. The CPX2 is a litte lighter on the other hand.
