Absolutely nothing wrong with having covers on an optic. Anybody that says differently is an idiot.

I consider my self an avid shooter. and would much prefer a set of caps for when its not inuse. why not keep em clean and dust free when not in use?
A simple cover made from a piece of an old bicycle or motorcycle inner tube will do what you want and cost practically nothing.Quote:

Suggestions of a positive nature appreciated.

I had these on both sides of a TA33. Worked just fine up. Lots of rain and mud during a Seattle carbine class, the covers worked well until the mud got on them, then I flipped them down and kept shooting.
When I get old I am going to cover my couch with plastic so you young punks don't mess it up.
