I've had it for probably close to 20 years. Not sure if they make anymore (and if they do... what models they support) but worth looking into. Nice piece of kit.

Cut the top off a few inches longer than needed and run a few stitches of carpet thread through it and yer gtg.Keeps them clean and no scratches.

That is genius! I’m stealing that for the short term.

I saw somewhere a guy bought a cheap molle water bottle holder and cut the bottom out and slipped it over his straight scope. I was hoping it was someone here.
