I have inherited a Nikko Sterling 3.4-10X 44 AO IR LRX Gameking scope. The scope has an illuminated retecle and I am missing the cap for the battery compartment. I have not been able to find a source for a replacement cap. Recommendations appreciated.

well.
I think I'd measure the threads and go a shop and measure some of theirs.
you might get lucky and end up ordering one from another maker.

Thanks! Did a lot of web surfing and have not found a POC for Nikko or where they are made (bet on China). On another forum read that Nikko used Tasco Worldclass scope bodies. Since it appeared that the same battery was being used I called Tasco Customer Service and the Busnell Parts Department answered. Explained my problem and they were super friendly and helpful and I ordered a replacement cap. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I did that once with new Burris caps on an old Redfield scope. Perfect fit.
