Have a Gen 3 Mini-14 with the Mil spec 3x lens.  I have the aluminum adapter that the 3x screws into and the other end slips over the end of the focus ring of my Mini.  However it is not very secure and have a hard time getting it to stay on.  Is there an adapter for the set up that will let me screw the 3x onto the end of the Mini?  Or does anyone have a fix?
Thanks

Unfortunately the MUM does not have a threaded lens.

I wonder if the adapter is out of spec or if the obj lens housing is out of spec.  Just how loose is it?  Mine is a very tight friction fit.

I have the black plastic adapter. It was hard as hell to get on. Had to grease it a little with some silocone grease and a rubber mallet (very gentle with the mallet ) to get it on. Get the plastic one. Once its on it aint coming off. At least not without a good deal of effort.
