I bought a SWFA SS1-4HD last year on Black Friday and did not buy the Switchview Lever for it. I should have, the power ring is very stiff but to me that just means it is built to last. I waited all year for Black Friday to buy one on sale but they were not included in the sale items.
I sent an email asking them to PLEASE put it on sale because I had waited a year and that it was a "must have" for this optic. I did not beg or embellish beyond that, I just think it should have been included in the sale like the other SWFA scope accessories were.
I just got an email back from Chris Farris, they are sending me a $59.95 SWFA Switchview for no charge as an early Christmas gift!
I am speechless and will continue to support SWFA due to customer service like this as well as SS optics being what I believe to be the best dollar value optics from anywhere.
Does your battery drain when not in use? This has been an issue with mine. Sent it in to be fixed but it still does it. Every time I grab it the battery is dead
