Anybody try a flip up cover on an AO scope?

Hi Abhijeet,

Thanks for the details and the pics! Unfortunately I cant use them as the objective lens on the Legend does a full twist from 0-infinity. If I attach a flip up, the maximum I can adjust is from 0-30 yards.

I think I'm just going to leave the current covers or get the bikini ones as Rusty suggested. Being pocketable is a huge advantage over the hard plastic covers.

Also, the bikini covers being made of rubber should provide good insulation too.

Go in for the bikini that I use.

They come off in a jiffy, are malleable and far more comfortable. Last but not least you don't have to worry about sizes. They stretch to most sizes and can be re-used on others with different sizes.

Rusty, I dont know what to say! Tsk Tsk!

But seriously, thanks. That seems to be the best option as of now. Have a set you can spare: I'm talking about the covers.

Good morning Gutter Brain!

I have a spare one but that will go on a scope coming this December.

If you wait I will get you one from Cabelas with my next order.

Good Morning Cockatiel!

I will most certainly wait! Hope Christmas gets you all generous with the gifts!

C'mon! I only wanted to give you a reason to feel good. I know how meaningless life can get once you've seen one too many Christmases. Which is clearly your case!

I mean, look at the temper. All that stems from not having enough people to be nice to.
