Rifle Scopes Falcon 4-14FFP replacement knobs are out

[Holland83]

Just a heads up for falcon menace owners that are having turret alignment issues.

I just received a replacement pair in the mail from optics warehouse.

The new style looks exactly like the old except now they have 3 set screws on the side of each turret.

I received them free of charge from opticswarehouse.

I would contact wherever you purchased yours from and see what they can do for you.

To take care of the mushyness just wipe out that nasty sticky grease they send with it and put on a lighter grease.

I just used some gun oil for right now and it feels much better. You can actually hear a nice sharp click now.

I'll work on getting some pics up

I though you were saying that dial was out in regards to actual movement of crosshair!

No the problem what that zero on the turret would not line up exactly with the center line.

There were more clicks then splines.

To fix the problem they released turrets with set screws.

Was that problem common to all models?

Yes I have this issue with my metric 10X as well. The turret will only zero out every 3 clicks.

It hasn't been a huge issue for me as my zero has managed to line up pretty good with the 3 click intervals, but yeah I can see it being an issue for sure. This is really the only complaint I have with mine.
