Stores in the UK were selling it, and I had started trying months ago getting a couple of them to either sell some to me, or direct me to the manufacturer. Neither panned out. It appears this "DG Designs" may have stopped producing these units, but I am wondering if anyone here knows how to reach them to talk about producing them again? I can't find a website or anything else related to them. _________________ ` I'd say "I care." But I'd be lying.

But I think the original maker has disappeared, they have been making then for about 12 years or so on and off. There is a similar one called the Bisley scope maximiser and it’s available. http://www.precisionairgunsandsupplies.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=bisley+eyecup Al PS: There is this one from Hong Kong? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Shooting-Gear-40mm-Rifle-Scope-Rubber-Eyepiece-Extender-Black-/290952149211?pt=UK_SportingGoods_Hunting_ShootingSports_ET&hash=item43be1978db Last edited by Alstone on Mon Aug 19, 2013 10:50 am; edited 1 time in total _________________   Posted: Mon Aug 19, 2013 6:40 am AirGunEric Site Admin Joined: 20 Jan 2007 Posts: 6908 Location: "Out There" Ah- so it's some sort of on-off production. It appears those Bisley units are a fair bit pricier. Either way, thank-you for the information and I will see if I can find out any more on the Bisley units. _________________ ` I'd say "I care."

The only problem with the DG model was that to fit it on the scope eyepiece you needed something like KY Jelly, because there was very little stretch in the connection. _________________   Posted: Mon Aug 19, 2013 7:19 pm AirGunEric Site Admin Joined: 20 Jan 2007 Posts: 6908 Location: "Out There" Anything you have to shove in/on something else and requires KY jelly to do it has got to be interesting!   Posted: Mon Aug 19, 2013 9:50 pm Slavia Moderator Joined: 31 Mar 2008 Posts: 4382 Location: Waseca, Minnesota, USA I use that stuff when I stretch black vinyl tubing over my barrels. Dish soap would probably work, too - that's what I use to slip on bicycle handlebar grips. _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!
