DEFENDER FLIP CAP LENS COVERS Reviews & Ratings

DEFENDER™ FLIP CAP EYEPIECE

Virtually indestructible, these caps will fit snugly on nearly all Vortex Optics and features a snap flat spring that will keep your line of sight unobstructed. Rifle ranges the world over are littered with broken flip caps. This is one cap you will most likely never see in a flip cap boneyard. The Eyepiece cap has three stop positions. The first vertical, to put your dope disk (optional accessory) literally right in your face. The second at a 45° and the third at 90° to lay flat back. The Eyepiece cap fits all Vortex® Riflescopes except the 1-inch tube Viper® model VPR-M-01BDC, VPR-M-04BDC and VPR-M-03BDC.

Was disappointed

Purchased these for my Vortex Gen ii 4.5-27. The great concept but needs work. When flipping up the eye piece cover they would slide off the scope. The only way for them to stay on is to use 2 hands, one to old the rubber on the scope the other hand to flip up the cap. These are going back.
