Weaver Rebuild

cold queso · 07-25-2008, 10:20 AM

I have a pile of Weaver K2.5, K3, K4, and V9 scopes I wanted to send down to El Paso to get rebuilt. But it looks like the old guy doing the work closed up shop earlier this month.

Does anyone else do this work? The only lead I've found is a BIll Ackerman in New Mexico.

cold queso-
I checked on the opticstalk forum, they're usually the best place for this kind of info. The only thing I could find was a thread that was about two months old, and it didn't help much.

The Optics Talk Forums: Weaver Scope Repair Service closing

It might be a good place to watch for more info though.

Sorry I couldn't help more.

The "REAL" Weaver repair service went under in May. One of the G&G guys directed me here.

Yeah - parsons doesn't list Weaver as a supported product.

However, I did find www.ironsight.com, is the Denver area. They list a flat fee of $85 for fix, adjust, and nitrogen purge, and list the Weaver fixed powers as one of the models they support.

Kool I'll have to save that.

I cant get WWW.ironsight.com to open.
