Re: need a custom cover for spotting scope,,,,
Copied from the other "Scope Cover" thread:
http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthre...848#Post2483848
Here is a cover that I completed for Ratbert.
The latest revision uses a Coyote Brown size 10 self healing zipper and it very beefy.
I also created a section for a Velcro small name tape.
This case does not have the garnish straps.
(Ratbert requested that the straps be left off.)
A few specs on this case:
- All Multicam material is 1000 Denier Cordura and is genuine Crye.
- All Hook & Loop material is genuine Velcro brand.
- All panels consist of two layers of 1000D and have a thin foam padding between them.
- All stitching is double or triple stitched.
- Cases are fitted and are a tight fit.
- All cases are built to order by me, in the US and use US materials wherever possible.
- Zippers are #10 "Self Healing" Coil type and use metal sliders.
- Zipper pulls are hand tied and use Coyote Brown 550 cord.
- All cases carry a no BS lifetime guarantee.
Bushnell prototype will be going out for testing later this week.
It will be available for order as soon as I hear that it is good to go.
Here are some images of one of my new covers.
This model is outfitted with Garnish Straps and has the PALS Compatible Fast Attach System.
Should have new photos of the ARD compatible version up in a couple days.
On a future development note...
I will be releasing a version of this case with Multicam webbing.
(It actually won't be the died stuff since I think it looks like ass, but rather built up 1000D Cordura or 1" webbing covered by 1000D Cordura where extra strength is required.
Along with that, there will also be a "Stealth" version that will use a bungee / elastic system to hold the cover open.
The down side to that system is that it is not as easy to open and close, but it does eliminate any and all Velcro noise.
New ordering options will be:
- With or Without Velcro
- Multicam only model (Coyote Free except for Velcro)
- Integrated Kestrel Pouch
- Integrated Notepad
Additional fees for the new versions will be released when I post the images of the prototypes.
Another product that will be available sooner than I anticipated is a cover for the Vectronix PLRF10, PLRF10C, & Leica 1200 Scan.
A few other products in the works are:
- Integrated Tripod case
- Utility Pocket DOPE kit
- Scope case for the traditional Kowa style spotting scopes
Until my Web Site is done, please PM me with any inquiries.
The product kind of took off before I had a chance to finish all of my business preparations.
Thanks for your support,
