I've owned the dexlue Shaver and didn't like it.  The markings are not nearly as well done as the MVA sights. I haven't used a Kelly sight, but would never pick anything but an MVA.

   I have a Kelley mid range on my Ballard and like it very much. Aesthetics has something to do with it. I would never buy anything from Shaver for personal reasons.

I have a Kelley and economy and Super Grade Shaver. The Kelley is beautifully made and has a bling factor. The Super Grade Shaver is equal in function and does have the angle adjustment capability. I don't have an MVA but don't see any reason to seek one, out especially at a higher price.

I love the Kelley sights. One big advantage is if I have 4-5-6 original 1885’s I just have to buy a base for each one (if I wanted) and then all I have to do is move the staff. Not only a great sight but a hell of a lot less expensive.

The MVA is great. Nicer finish than Baldwin, but I like the Baldwin real well. Like the right hand rule with the Baldwin as it turns for sighting as on my scopes.

I have Kelley, Baldwin, Hoke, and MVA they all have worked well. I do have more MVA's than the others. MVA and Baldwin both have great service after the sale, should something happen.
Only ever had 1 Shaver that came on a used rifle I bought, haven't seen that sight in many years, might have to dig around and see If I still have it and put it on Ebay or something.
