Rifle Scopes Premier LT flip cap ?

[RHutch]

I got a few of these in and need to remove the flip caps off at least 1 so I can mount it properly.
I cannot figure out how to get them off. I can rotate them but they don't seem to pull off.
Dont want to apply any more force then necessary…

Anybody have any experience with these?

The end of the objective and ocular bells have an aluminum lip. The lens cover snaps onto this lip. This is why the lens cover rotates so freely, but doesn't fall off.

You must unsnap the cover from this aluminum lip. Instead of trying to pull it straight off, try bending or flexing the edge of the lens cover so it can slide up and over the aluminum lip on the objective bell.

Did you get it?
If not open the cover up and use your thumb to push off the area around the ring, it will pop off. If you have any trouble PM me with your number and I will call you.
Thanks,
Paul

I just got a LT tactical and had the same question. Thanks for the help Paul.
