Great fit!!
I am not doing this to try and win a contest. I just recently received my flip caps for my Crossfire ll with V-Brite. I asked Vortex for their advice on the correct size, among many, and they nailed it. Thanks Jimmy! They fit like a snug glove. I LIKE THEM!! The original caps fit fine but when walking through brush, if you left them on, you would be snagging them. Now they're secure. I read a a review that says they were loud when they opened. I don't have that issue. I got a quick response, accurate fit and another great Vortex product.

Average quality, great for the price
These are average quality lens caps. They're nothing special, but they're as good as other competing brands. They fit the scope pretty well, but could be a little tighter. When you first get them, the cap is a little hard to flip open, but it eases up some with regular use. I do like the fact that these flip completely open and don't remain at a 90 or 45 degree angle...they're less likely to snag and detract from your line of sight. I haven't had any issues with mine breaking, but I can certainly see how they could. However, despite a few shortcomings, these are as good as most brands, and for the price you really can't complain too much. I put these on an inexpensive 3-9 optic I have on a Savage .22lr rifle. If you're needing caps for an expensive scope like a Viper, I'd highly recommend you pony up a little more and buy the Defender caps...those things are amazing.

Too Loose
I put this on the rear of a Vortex Viper PST and it is too loose. The whole thing always comes off before it will flip open. Now I just pull the whole thing off and throw it in my dump pouch when I want to shoot, and then put it back on when I'm done.

Perfect fit
These are perfect for the hunting rifle I put them on, they protect my glass and can be flipped up at a moments notice. They are on a Vortex Diamondback HP, so getting the right size was easy since the accessories tab on the product page tells me what size fits my specific scope. When they arrived, they were indeed a perfect fit, went on without issue, and I don't see them coming off unless I want them to.

I love the idea
I bought these to go on my diamondback. On a hunt a couple years ago one got ripped off and I ordered a replacement because I do like them quite a bit. I have noticed that over time and after a bit of use they become loose and tend to fall off or twist. They do work well though and definitely adds a little bit of character to your guns.

Superior build quality!
I purchased this product with my Strike Eagle scope. Why can I say? I am
Blown away by the superior build quality and features as well as the awesome customer service. I will definitely be back for more and I'm bringing friends!

Solid design and great value. . . .
Have a pair of these on my Crossfire and they are everything I needed, for a great price. Tried a pair of Butler Creeks in the past, and always had issues with them staying in place while closed. Once closed these STAY closed and when opened the spring actuated flip cap stays WIDE OPEN. Not to mention the price is right.

Great!
I put this on the front of a Viper PST and it works great. The fit is perfect, and I never have a problem with it coming off instead of flipping open.
