Excellent cover for my scope.

Excellent cover for my scope. I like that it is treaded so there is no chance of it slipping off and getting lost. It's a little expensive but the quality of design and materials make it a good buy.

Best thought out

Some of the most thought out lens caps. Silent open, nice rubber pressure seal but still easy to open. Won't rattle loose.

These are not as nice as they used to be. Still far superior to the all plastic ones, but not as well made as my older Alumina caps. Much harder to actuate and just feel 'cheaper'.

When snug on the scope

When snug on the scope the hinge dirts up against the the barrel. So I had to back it up and it sits loose on the scope. Not sure if there is a way to correct this?

Absolutely love it! It's a little pricey but probably well worth it. I just wish I would've put it on after I 1st bought my gun because I had to remove my scope to install the front eyepiece because it wouldn't turn on the threads without removing the scope and it was already sighted in to perfection. But I marked every position and believe it's still on zero but I still need to go to the range and double check before our opener. But I do love the product. My old slide ons kept falling off. These are awesome.

Tabs to open cover are

Tabs to open cover are too small, and cover swivels all around at random so I have to stop and look at it to open. The VX-5 1-5 LPVO is wonderful with a crystal clear & wide picture. But the lens cover is a letdowm.
