Looking for a rigger to use on ASW 20. Have seen both brands in common use. The IMI seems to cost less. Would be interested in discussion of pros and cons of the two different makes.

I've owned Udo, Cobra, and lately IMI riggers. Also used several others.
IMI is the best I've used:
- Constructed with large aluminum square tubes - string and light
- Nice big pneumatic wells roll easy over soft ground
- Beautifully made.
With a string gauge (not shown in video) I solo assemble my ArcusM quickly
and easily. I modified a non-electric unit to electric; probably you've seen:

No more strained back!
Hope that helps,
Best Regards, Dave


Took a couple more days than planned, but an update:
The IMI electric rigger is excellent.

Est vous dans l'etats-unis?
If so, check with Wings and Wheels but I think they delivered quite a few from their stock lately. We got ours on their Black Friday sale, cheap *******s that we are.
