Rifle Scopes SWFA 1-6 Switchview lever

Howa4AU · Apr 22, 2013

Is there one out there yet or has anybody found one that works with the 1-6?

hk dave · Apr 22, 2013

The one made for the 1-4 works on the 1-6... not perfectly, but it does fit well enough to make it work.

Stormshadow · Apr 22, 2013

Have used the 1-4 switch on my 1-6 w/out issue so far. There is a post in the tax day thread that says the 5-20 HD switch works as well on the 1-6

I've decided to just wait for specific 1-6 lever when they come available. I don't suppose it will be as long a wait as was for the scope itself? But if I can wait 9 months or whatever it was for the scope, I can wait for this lever thing. Do really need it though, mag so stiff.

Howa4AU · Apr 23, 2013

I would prefer one specific to the 1-6 but may have to try one mentioned. Power ring is pretty stiff and I use this scope on a 3 gun rifle. Need to be able to switch it easier.

hk dave · Apr 23, 2013

For 3 Gun, the lack of a cat tail would suck with this scope. The mag ring is stiff.

I just moved the throw lever from my 5x20 to my 1x6 and I can say it is a perfect fit. I guess I'm going to have to order another one!

The dedicated one to six lever will be worth the wait.
It’s a single screw low profile design allowing it to be used on a wide variety of mounts.

I would think very soon but I would check with SWFA for an official word.

When I changed out my 1-4x for the 1-6x I moved over the throw lever. Looks and works just fine.

Kiba · Apr 30, 2013

The 5-20 throw lever fits perfectly on the 1-6. Oddly enough the 5-20 lever fits the 1-6 better than the 5-20; the single slotted screw in the magnification ring of the 1-6 is further forward and completely clears the lever whereas the single slotted screw on the 5-20 magnification ring sits partially under the lever when installed.

Bumping this thread in case anyone has any updated info on the 1-6 switchview release date. I'm on the fence on if I want to order the 5-20 or wait for the proper 1-6 version.

X-Navy · May 9, 2013

Just got the 5-20 switchview for my 1-6, no issues with fitment at all. SWFA should just repackage this for the 5-20 and 1-6.

Howa4AU · May 10, 2013

I'm going to go ahead and try the 5-20 model. Since I have a 5-20 from the Facebook buy worst case is I can use it on the 5-20 and get the 1-6 when available.

avking · May 11, 2013

MGM shipped a large qty of the 1-6 levers to SWFA a week ago. Need to wait for them to arrive and added to the site.

WACADOO · May 16, 2013

I just ordered one!!!!

Dallas4rceMarine · May 16, 2013

the 5-20 lever will work, however the 1-6 specific throw lever will be available soon!

WACADOO · May 16, 2013
