Does anyone know where or who can repair the old weaver steel tube scopes. Weaver won't touch them and haven't for years. Any help would be great!!! Thanks.

There was a company in El Paso called Weaver Scope Repair that rebuilt an old K6 for me. That was about 10 years ago, not sure if he's still there or not.
Shoot. Eat. Repeat.

Chuck: did they do a good job for you? They have had an old Redfield scope of mine for about 7 months, now. Beginning to get nervous!

They took 2 months to refurb my K6, did a dang good job. Lost an adjustmet cap on my V7, last summer. They told me to send them one and $10. They sent me back mine and included 2 more. So I have no problems with them.

Thanks for your help. I will check them out. I also found a guy in Canada of all places that repairs them. Will try yours first

Chuck: thanks, that's good to hear. It's curious that it only took two months for your's. They told me up front it would be 6 months. I called after 6 months, and they said it would be a couple more.
junkout: let us know how it works out for you.

Just a follow-up. The old Redfield arrived yesterday. Looks like Iron Site Inc. did a good job. But the turnaround was almost exactly 9 months.
