@tommyofthehillpeople3 жыл бұрын
I dont know either but it gave me an idea. Find someone who does 3D printing or do it yourself and create a business opportunity for yourself to help others in your situation. The idea: a throw lever that can clamp to the paralax knob then arch over the scope to the right side. With a little tinkering, you can find the right angles to get a full adjustment range then draw it out. I hope that helps. Since a regular magnification throw lever sells for around $30-$40, i bet this would sell for $65+/-. Not to gouge, but theres more material and would need to be a bit stronger. An alternative might be machined aluminum.

@@bustabeans7917 I've never used a fixed magnification scope. One of my scopes is a SFP and can still be used to figure out the distance as on it's 24x magnification it is set to 100 yards and at 12x magnification you either half or double the mil dots and soon with the 6x magnification. Sorry I can't remember which was around it is. You can also use the parallax to help gauge the distance by setting targets every 5 or 10 yards or so and put stickers on the parallax wheel. I've also found it's best to stick to one of the magnification settings to set the parallax as I've found the parallax focus can be different depending on which magnification setting you're on, be it 6x, 12x or 24x.
