<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">the unique new Meade/Simmons erector eliminates the traditional gimbal/biasing spring altogether and replaces it with a newly patented erector tube that is solidly attached to the scope body, with increased flexibility at the normal gimbal point being provided by special grooves in the unique erector material. This unique design allows the erector to maintain an even pressure from end to end, eliminating the need for a biasing spring altogether while maintaining a consistent optical path. Response to windage and elevation adjustments are immediate and precise. No more tapping on the turret to be sure the adjustment "sets."</div></div>
