It says it is a closeout sale. Wonder what is up with that?

I don't see that. I'm viewing the link on an iPad, if that makes a difference.

Sig did come out with the 2400, so maybe the 2000 is being discontinued. Just a guess.

I was looking at the email SWFA sent out about the sale

Just got an email that they're out of stock, so my order is on back order, which I assume means not going to happen.

Sux when it happens when you're out hunting. Luckily my antelope was only 300 yards out... this thing is going back to Sig and I'm going back to my Leica LRF1200.

That's kind of a personal question, don't ya think?

For what it's worth, here's a thread on the Sig 2400. Reports of the SIGs crapping out is concerning.

Haha... is your <censor> clean?

These problems are why I'm using ol' Faithful AKA my Leica this year.

I don't think any of these rangefinders, no matter who makes them, have real stellar reliability records do they? I've heard a lot of complaints about some of the Leica ones too and they are much more expensive. Hopefully SIG will be standing behind their products. So far I haven't had any issues with mine, knock on wood.

Yup, there have been LOTS of reports of Leicas crapping out over the years. At least Sig has a 5-year electronics warranty and lifetime on the optics, with decent service IME so far.

Having said that, my Bushnell Fusion has been used hard and has taken it's share of tumbles without missing a beat, so that's what I take hunting (beside the fact that I don't have to carry separate bino and RF, which is why I bought it in the first place), and the Sig is a range toy for now. The Fusion will hit trees out to 1700m every time, and deer and cattle out to 1200-1500m, and even 1700m some of the time depending on lighting, so if the Sig craps out on me it won't be a big deal. Once it proves its longevity it may start to come hunting...

Let's see... Is the sensor the little lens under the 7 power optic lens?

I just got my second Sig Kilo from SWFA and it's a dud compared to my original one. I'm gonna send it off with the hopes it'll come back better than the old one.


Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!
