ABSTRACT:
A telescopic scope for use in conjunction with a firearm, the scope of the type having a tubular member, at least one eye-piece lens proximal to one end of the tubular member, at least one objective lens proximal to the other end of the tubular member, an erector lens system intermediate said eye-piece lens and said objective lens, a reticle intermediate said eye-piece lens and said objective lens, and turrets for adjusting the erector lens system can be improved by having the tubular member include a one-piece integrally formed main tube including a saddle integrally formed with the main tube intermediate the ends of the main tube. The scope is attached to the firearm by scope mounting rings which attach directly to the main tube. The erector lens system includes an erector tube which fits inside the main tube and contains at least one erector lens. The saddle and the main tube have two passage holes normal to the longitudinal axis of the main tube and normal to each other and mounted on the saddle over the passage holes are the turrets. The turrets are attached to adjustment screws which link to the erector tube and move the erector tube in response to movement of the turrets. The lenses are mounted to the main tube and to the erector tube utilizing a combination of lens seats and a flexible cradle ring. The flexible cradle rings fit over the lenses and in turn are held by the lens seats.
