[QUOTE="Sixkiller66, post: 3352562, member: 133533"] OK so I played around with it and it seems that my Tento 10x50 end-rings could theoretically press-fit right on the Bushnell Custom but I was too afraid to really thrust them in, as they are 0.5mm too small. So now I am looking for a ring [B]65mm total,[/B] from a salvaged 10x50. The threads will probably be different but a drop of superglue/press fit will be just fine. Please if anyone has a lot of savaged 50mm bins, let me know what's a good price for you for a pair of these rings with shipping to my NJ address. Have you got any Sir Bill ? Edit: check these out [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/WWII-7X50-B-L-MK-32-OBJECTIVE-CAP-BEAUTY-RING-B1043-/111666326452?hash=item19ffd4ebb4:g:-q4AAOSwEeFVTj32[/url] 63mm inside diameter, the Custom objective ends without the original cap is 61.5mm. Maybe I'll buy these and press-fit/glue them on with something reversible and pry-able I can live without the SQUINT PROOF engrave :) No? [/QUOTE]
