    Rifle Scopes Erector controls

    Why noone explored switched knobs. Elevation changed with windage so you would actually turn knob up to raise impact, turn left to move impact left. Sure the mechanism would be more complex but i guess it should work. And for the USAF you can simply do a "ccw" version where up is down and down...
