mick01 36 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 does anyone have any problems with a gun lamp knocking your scope out of zero? i bought a tracer max a few months back, when i attach the lamp i think its knocking my sights out, should i zero with the lamp on and then leave it on? also does anyone no if there is a dimming device available for it and if so how much they are? cheers evryone..

Guest buster321c Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 A lamp should not affect the scope , if i were you i would check all the fixings and make sure the scope is secure . Quote Link to post
hughesey1552 0 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 I leave the mounting bracket permanently on my scope and then just slide the lamp on. I think mines a deben tracer max aswell. But busters right it shouldnt really be knocking you scope of zero. Hughesey Quote Link to post

Mick Yes you should zero with the lamp on.I always have about five shots before i get to my shooting area so i know the gun is zeroed.As there is nothing more frustrating than waiting about an hour .Only to find out your scope is no zeroed atb catcher.
