ABSTRACT:
A sight cover for a sight, e.g. a gun sight, comprises first and second lens covers for the eyepiece and objective ends of the sight. The longitudinally displaced covers have three elastic cords extending in tension between the covers when the covers are in place. One elastic cord running adjacent the top of the sight is shorter than the other two cords causing a greater tension therein. On flipping the eyepiece end cover towards the top of the sight the top cord urges the eyepiece cover up and over the sight. The return of the three cords to their normal, untensioned positions springily displaces not only the cover from the objective end of the sight but also the entire sight cover away from the sight. The sight cover is tethered at one end to the rifle or the like.
