I may be kicking the horse who is dead, but I would like to know if there are any flip caps for the Micro T1 available. I am not interested in using the Bikini cover.

Thanks

$194 for the QD LOL. That is some funny shit. Are they made of gold? OP, get a IO cover from TangoDown and be done with it. Have them on all my T1s and love them.

To be fair, that price is for a mount that includes QD covers.

A heavy mount. Most other mounts+the cost of an IO cover is still gonna be $50-100 less.

All correct, but the IO isn't flip caps.

I have the IO and like it. Flip caps it ain't.

I think a set could be improvised - take a pair of Butler Creek or similar, drill some holes and use elastic cords to secure them to each other, with enough tension to stay on the optic.
