scope repairs in oz ?

Post by aussie »

i recently purchased a leupy mark 4 from the optic zone.the windage adjustment seems excessively tight. it turns and goes click but seems to be binding.the local importer that we all love wont have anything to do with it as it didn't come to oz via him. so is there a place locally {oz} that will have a look or is it pack up and send back to toz? the leupy site don't have toz as a authorised seller

Hey Aussie

My brother has just sent a leupy back not sure to TOZ or direct to Leupy but think he had it back in under a month.

This might help you out. copied from some site

Optical Restorers and scope repairs

Malcolm Eames repairs rifle scopes, binoculars, telescopes and microscopes at Westlake here in Brisbane. Malcolm is trained at Zeiss and has been repairing some Benchrest and other target rifle scopes recently. Riflescopes are one of the major headaches in competition Benchrest shooting today. Many brand name scopes often fail to hold zero to the standards required for Benchrest Shooting. We have had some of our own scopes looked at by Malcolm too. He can be contacted on 07-3715 5603 or 0407 007 116. meames@bigpond.net.au

He worked on an old Weaver Steel Tube T16 I have. Prices were very reasonable, and the returned product was as good as new.

I recommend his services.
