Rifle Scopes Throw lever for S&b PMII

[OzzyO20]

I'm in need of a throw lever for my 5-25 PMII, and I wanted to get some feedback before I decide on one. I've looked around and prices range from $19.99 for the MK Machine polymer model all the way up to $100+ for what I assume is the factory 'shark fin' looking model.

I'll be using it for PRS matches if that helps. Honestly, I quite like the looks of the MK Machine polymer one in FDE, but I don't wanna save $80 to spend $200 running out and buying a new one every time one snaps (not saying they do, hence why I'm looking for input). An aluminum ring that takes every groove and the taller fin into account would be ideal, but Switch View nor MK makes one that I've see.

Thanks everyone.

The new fin does NOT work with 5-25 as it requires the aluminum magnification ring.
MK Machine, while ugly, got the job done - although I haven't tried it on S&B.
I also purchased switchview's aluminum throw lever. However, I returned because I couldn't figure out how to get it on a 3-20 US without scratching up the scope.

I didn't even see a model from switchview, google kept giving me one for a S&B Short Dot. But that's irrelevant if it wont even go on the mag ring.

I found this in a box full of stuff that I’d forgotten I had. I think it’s for a 4-16x50 PM 2. No markings on it other than SBB.
If you want to try it, send me a PM.

I saw that one too, but it's on back order. I had an Aadland mount and scope caps on an old Gen 1 Vortex Razor, excellent products made extremely well. For now, I'm gonna give VSP968's a try, and see if they are compatible.

I read on here somewhere that most of his items say 'backordered' but he prints and ships them once they are purchased. I just ordered one for my PMII I just bought so we'll see I guess.

Measure and see if one of the Sportsmans will work. Inexpensive and work very well. Have one on my Razor II.

Let me know what the wait time looks like, and how you like it when it arrives.

You're not gonna break ours under any normal use! FYI Aadland are 3d printed as well.

Hey Tyler, do you think that the notch being a square vs. rounded to the individual ridges like the aluminum versions would tear up the rubber mag ring cover over time? That was really my main concern with the printed version.

No, I'm quite confident you won't have any issues like that. Between our Rev I, II, and III levers we have about 15000 out there and I've never once heard of any damage or wear and tear to a mag ring.

Tell ya what, if the one VSP968 is sending me isn't compatible with my scope I will give your FDE printed version a shot. Again, never doubted your all's work I was just looking for input.

Will do
