i called jeff and told him that the flat black one that comes with the erek knob is ugly and boring. i wanted something that looked as good as the scope. i asked them if they could make me a cover with the us optics logo on it. well, to my surprise they've never done that one before and said ill see what they can do. well, here it is, 2 weeks later and looks so much better than the original. kinda putting it out there for yall to see. what do yall think?
 
Re: look what uso made for me

You must have the first one...I have never seen one before.
Pretty damn cool!

JRose is right...the rush will be your fault entirely.

It is important to have someone to blame for all things.

There's no way I'd paint on an expensive scope...

I talked to Nick about doing that 2 years ago LOL. Glad they finally got it done!

They look really good!

Jealous......nahhhh. Now if it makes you shoot any better then I may have to see about adding one to my SN-3, but for now I'm still beating you by 12 points!

Re: look what uso made for me

chiller. And emails.

Ritten. Who knows, but it looks better than the flat black one. Well see what happens at the next match. I'm hoping don calls me soon. Next week isn't coming fast enough
 
Re: look what uso made for me

I had a feeling this would happen. If anyone is interested in getting one of these caps just shoot me an e-mail. We haven't determined a price yet but I'll try post that by the end of today.
 
Re: look what uso made for me

This would be good for some of us who don't have T-PAL scopes with the big US Optics on the front... Another piece for branding purposes, as if people won't recognize a USO when they see one...

Great idea S.i.t. I would imagine USO can laser engrave different insignias on there as well, for different branches of service...

Jeff, email inbound.

Slightly different yeah... More stars in this one, and address is replaced by web address. The Eagle looks a bit different also. Were those it John? Or are there more differences?

Yea, but I would still know it's there under the paint.

That is slick.

I would order one, but yes my scope will get a dose of krylon camo after I verify tracking and function.

HOWEVER, I could get one and wear it around my neck on a chain! Kind of like the Mercedes hood ornaments back in the day!

What I was gonna say. The two-toned look would be killer. Since you would mask off the click values on the knobs anyway, no problem just removing the cover while painting, then put it back on.

Just got return mail from Jeff for the two I am ordering... Good times. By the way, I am customizing mine with different words on them, in case people are wondering if it can be done.
 
Re: look what uso made for me

We have put the Marine Corp Eagle, Globe & Anchor on a few guys' sunshades and T-PAL objectives so any other ensignia or seal is doable as well.

I'm thinking our laser engraver would have no problem engraving through the Krylon but we have had some issues engraving on Cerakote. It's always worth a shot though.
 
Re: look what uso made for me

you could sell those as key chains. Can I get one on OD green since I seem to have lost my solid cover.
I am selling my scope to fund a build and would really like to send it with both covers. Sucks, but it is the only thing I have that is worth enough...

PM me what you are selling. I may be interested
 
Re: look what uso made for me

Am I the only one that saw the USO Girls photos???

I sooooo think they should use those as pasties on the next calendar...

3 USO's in this house and 5 caps to be ordered... If the USO girls wont wear them I will make the wife

Re: look what uso made for me

The whole point of the Krylon is to hide the scope. A black circle is rare in nature and draws the eye.

Now if the engraving was deep enough that I could still see it under a light dusting of krylon, then I may be interested.

Depends on how much it's going to cost. I spend quite a bit on ammo right now.

I knew some of you would see my logic!!!
