Hi JK, I am glad you like this scope and welcome to Birdforum! These Regal scopes seem like best bang for the buck right now. I am also glad the scope helped to identify the rare endangered Shore Plover.
Another scope I would like to get.:-)
Regards,Steve

Does it come with a functional stay on case or is it just a carrying case? If it's a carrying case, does anyone have any suggestions as to an alternative stay on case from other manufacturers that will fit?

The case appears to be intended for “stay-on”. It zips open at one end to reveal the eyepiece, and additionally has a second longer zipper that reveals the objective and runs under the scope to allow access to the tripod foot. So the case can be left on the scope, but access to the focusing screws is a bit restricted.

I usually use it with the case off.

Thanks. I've got one in the post at a knockdown price so i'm inclined not to worry too much about getting a case, the weatherproofing should do just fine.
