I purchased a new Nightforce NXS scope and the logo on the illumination knob is almost upside down when the the illumination is turned off. Is there a way to align this so the logo is facing up? Thanks
 
Re: Aligning Nightforce Logo on Adjustment knob?

I could be wrong, not sure if they changed the illumination controls on the nxs, but turning the knob.adjusts paralex not the illumination. The illumination is on off by pulling it in and out
 
Re: Aligning Nightforce Logo on Adjustment knob?

This one is threaded and you have to turn it counterclockwise to get it off for battery change. No matter where I set it it, the logo is always facing Down when set in Illumination OFF mode. It's the NXS Compact scope.
 
Re: Aligning Nightforce Logo on Adjustment knob?

It's not a big deal, just wondering why the logo is upside down when in OFF mode. Looks odd. I figure a scope costing this much money.........All the photos in the nightforce catalog show it perfectly aligned in off mode. QC must have missed this on mine.

I can see this forum is populated by a bunch of arrogant A-holes. Sorry I ever came here. Just asking a question about why a $1200 + scope maker can't align the logo in the OFF mode. Sorry if I offended you all. I'm deleting my account now.

How would you feel if a new car you just ordered showed up to the dealer with the emblem upside down? Would you drive it off the lot without a problem as long as the engine ran and drove straight? That would be pretty ghetto huh?

When you pay top dollar for something it should be perfect in every aspect, if not it should be sold at a discount.

I'm dead serious. I can't believe how big of jackass's you guys are being to this guy that's trying to come here and learn something. I bet the site sponsors love it when all the cool kid club members drive new members away.

1.) He ain't new, his join date says 06
2.) If he's getting butt hurt because the knob that moves doesn't reset with the logo proper way up........I doubt some of the vendors want to deal with him.

I'm glad you see those as good enough reasons to bash a guy and run him away from the forum and make a comment like you did. A "No, not all the illumination knobs line up correctly" would have been sufficient.

OP, not all the members here are dickheads just a select few. The "ignore this user" button on their profile is your friend!

Edited to add: How was the OP ever getting butthurt over the knob not lining up? The only time he got butthurt was after the rude comments. He was simply simply asking why his knob didn't line up, it's a legitimate question that deserves a legitimate answer. I can only hope everybody is as kind to you if you ever have a question like it.

You should have your testosterone level checked. I'm pretty sure its low.
 
Re: Aligning Nightforce Logo on Adjustment knob?

I just checked my F1 and they screwed up my scope too! Is NF having a problem with QC or what? Thats alot of coin to screw up the logo! Btw illumination is operated by pulling the parallax out. on mine anyway Rthur

And every centerfold in Playboy has no blemishes, and every BicMac and Quarter pounder look perfect in the menu at McDonalds and I never seen a Harley Davidson break down in an ad...

It's marketing fuckhead!

Actualy I believe we have the highest asshole to member ratio on the internet. Maybe you would be better suited at BARFCOM where the retard to member ration may be more suitable to your needs

Sorry to know your armed. At least I know you'll be more worried about how your rifle looks instead of how to shoot. If and when teh SHTF it warms my heart to know you'll probably be one of the 1st to go. But damn....... your NF scope will sure look good with a perfectly centered logo

Call the fucking scope maker! They include their phone number in every package or on many of the misleading adds which contain misleading pictures of their product.

No your not, your asking a mod to do it. Yet another fine example of how you are using this site to do all your work for you.
You have participated in 3 topics during your 23 post. 2 of which you started asking dumb ass questions, this being one of them. The 3rd you suggest a scope to another member when its cleary obvious you can hardly deal wih your own. WTF?

Not even the same comparison.
He isnt talking about a static logo that was put on improperly. He is talking about the paralax adjustment which is designed to be rotated as need.
The comparison is like asking why the rims on your car do not stay perfectly aligned when you come to a stop. I have ZR1 rims on my corvette. They never are all in the same position when I park. FUCK!!!!!!!!!! I better call chevy and ask why. Beter yet, I better jump on a Corvette forum and ask them!















I will not let SH become BARFCOM, not on my watch. Please send all request to make me a MOD to LL.
This is ROLEXrifleman, and I endorse this post.

I actually think we should invite NOBODY back to be a mod...at least we'd have a highly entertianing thinning of the herd. </div></div>


LOL...... he'd have us down to 83 menber and 7 vendors in less than a week!
 
Re: Aligning Nightforce Logo on Adjustment knob?

To the OP, if you don't like it here because we do not agree with your vain requirements than please feel free to not come back. Also, please tell me how the position of the knob affected the performance of the scope.

To Redneckbmxer24, you acted like a douchebag before and now that you're back I can see you haven't changed. Why don't you shut your pie hole or you'll have another long time out? The OP isn't trying to "learn something" he's asking why a knob logo isn't straight. A irrelevant detail that I'm sure 99.99% of NF owners (including myself) could care less about.
