    Red dot covers

    I’m no doubt late to this and going to get a dozen “hell, we’ve been doing this for years” responses, but it is new to me so I’m going to post.

    I have been looking at covers for my EOTECH, C-MORE and other red dot sights and a bit put off by the prices that they command for what they are. Well today my wife asked me to grab a pair of socks for her. There on the top of her drawer were a pair of black ultra low cut “Peds” type no show shoe liners. Eureka! Nice stretchy nylon polyester fabric and an elastic band to hold it in place. Fits very nicely and looks pretty good too. Here’s one on a C-MORE Railway.

    The things look more like scope covers than socks to me.

    You don’t see a picture in the first post? I host them on my web site. Strange that some folks can’t see them while others can. Here is a link to the picture…

    Hope that works for you.
