I have an older El Paso Weaver that needs some TLC. I have an idea for one of the fixes, but I do not know how viable it is.
First, are the eye pieces on the Weaver K scopes interchangeable between powers or are they power specific? The eye piece on my K10 has a crack on the interior edge of an interior lens. Can I swap out the eye piece from another K scope?
Second, the ring that is the adjustable objective doesn't want to budge, most likely from fifty or so years of use and crud. What type of solvent can I use to free up the objective ring?
Thanks in advance for your constructive advice!
