Hi everyone!

Small problem here.
A part what I would call a turret position ring (?) came loose on my 6-36 without any impact or any abuse to the rifle or the scope.
The one indicated on photo (stolen from the net).

Shooting match is coming up this weekend and I'm hesitant to start the warranty process.

Has anyone encountered this issue before?
I'm tempted to fix the loose ring with a small drop or two of glue as it does not seem to have any other function as just to hold the line for turret position indication. Would that sort out the issue without affecting other functionality?

And yes .. I'm bit disappointed in Vortex quality. Scope is just few month old.

Vortex gave me a shipping label in less than 15 minutes of messaging them, they'll get you sorted right quick! I kmow that doesn't really "fix" your problem with the QC, but at least it gets sorted super fast when there is an issue...
