Vall, that's one reason why the nylon fibers are good. They stretch a little and the weight of your clips is enough.

I have four Lyman Alaskans at Parsons which have been there for over a year. I have not even gotten an estimate on repair cost. I talked to the son last week and he promised to get back to me, but so far not a peep. Disappointing, to say the least!

Ive had Iron Sights Inc clean / repair 6-8 scopes over the last few years. Great work, appropriate turn around, and they always answer the phone. Prices seem to run about $100 for about anything Ive had done.

Thanks to all for helpful responses. I'll study the possibility of doing it myself. There seems to do-it-yourself info on the internet, too.

The internal threaded lock rings will need a tool to unscrew them. I make them to fit various scopes by using hacksaw blades and wooden dowel. They're like a spanner nut, and have a notch on opposing sides. I cut the hacksaw blade to length to span the two notches. Then cut a notch in a wooden dowel, and epoxy the piece of blade into the dowel. Then just slip it into the tube and unscrew the spanner nut. I've made enough different types that I can take most scopes apart with the ones I have here.

Vall, Thanks for the tool tip. You make it sound doable.
