I got my set. They are great! Bit disappointed the Revic Br4s don't fit in the RF pouch. Other than that. So far so good 👍

I just got mine a few days ago and it's perfect for the way I like it to fit. I got the marsupial as a trade for my SG Skyline harness and within 3 days I sold it and got the sentinel. The marsupial was just too bulky for no reason. Maybe I didn't give it a chance enough but I like the fit of this one much better. I got it with the large pocket and use it for my cell phone and it's great. I didn't really see how the binos in previous version pulled the harness down a little bit but they fixed that with this one.

Also, I know some had concern of the velcro but I think it creates a super solid base that doesn't allow the pockets to move as you're pulling something out. I am extremely happy with it.

Interesting to hear. I emailed and they advised me that the RF Pouch was modified to fit the BR4 before they released it. But are you saying your BR4 doesn’t fit? It might be a couple got out the door that don’t fit. It may be worth reaching out to SG.

I’m swapping to a BR4 this year and that was a question I had.

Thanks, that’s a killer though. Was considering getting one but not if the BR4 doesn’t fit.
As noted in my comment above, I was advised via email by SG that the BR4 should fit.

My RF pouch is awful tight though on a smaller rangefinder, so I’m not sure if that a bit of bad information I was given or if there’s some inconsistency on their sizing.

I’m curious what they come out with, the gen 1 was a disappointment to me, but they wouldn’t have to change a lot to make it exceptional, but imo, they missed the mark on gen 1
I use the Kuiu harness… what was the issue with the SG gen 1?

The one I have here certainly does not fit a BR4, and it's new(just arrived). I'll email them now.

RF pouch at max adjustment will not close and ive had to force the RF in to get it to this point.

I can only speak for myself, but the harness was uncomfortable, and could really feel the weight of the binos on your neck. I think I couldn’t get the harness as high as I liked, but not positive. The sentinel seems to be exactly what I was hoping the gen 1 would be.

I think this new version is a good example of refining a product

A new bino harness problem the past couple years since getting the NL pures is that any fleece lined harness develops an obnoxious-problematic squeak with the NL, which is another pro of the SG harness.

My marsupial squeaked so bad that I couldn’t use it archery hunting, the kuiu was not as bad but still annoying, and even my catamount gen 2 squeaks a little after a season of use… the SG will not develop any squeak

Is anyone using a RRS Cinch with the new Sentinel Harness? I have the Large size with Leica Geovid R 10x42 and the Arca of the Cinch wants to get caught on the back plate lip making it tougher to remove.

I have the new wiser ba-7 sparrow mount on my revics and it fits the large pretty well. I think it is lower profile than the rrs and offsets to the center so you might try one
