[ARCHIVED THREAD] - something I just noticed

Posted: 3/27/2017 8:47:38 AM EDT

I was working on the flip cap for my pvs14 this weekend and got looking at the objective lens retaining ring.

I noticed there are places for two set screws but I only have one. are there supposed to be two?
I have probably only put about 20 hours on it, I got it new from TNVC.

The set screw is screwed in place once the focus adjustment is set. There are 2 holes but only one screw is needed/provided.

Like TNVC said, you only need one set screw. That is not a retaining ring. It is the infinity focus stop ring. If it goes out of adjustment your PVS-14 does not fall apart. It's only there to make your lens automatically be very close to infinity focus when it is screwed all the way in.
