Dr. DucNeed Bausch & Lomb Scope Repair- Where?
I have a great old BalVar 8 that is in need of reticle repair. Where can I send it? I didn't know where else to post for help.

<Howitzer>Dr. Duc, Bausch and Lomb and Bushnell are the same company now. I would assume you could send it to the Bushnell repair depot for repair. Their address is
Bushnell Performance Optics
Attention: Repair Department
8500 Marshall Drive
Lenexa, KS 66214.
For shipping instructions see the Bushnell web site. www.bushnell.com

Dr. DucBushnell was very sympathetic. Ackerman and Lee don't do old scopes and I couldn't get Harry Gibbs. Anybody know anyplace else?

steve yI have an old Redfield in the shop now with ABO in Miami. I've never dealt with them before so I cannot vouch for them yet.
If they can't fix it they might point you to someone. www.abousainc.com
Good luck

Their brochure says they specialize in vintage scopes. My only experience with them has been finding Lyman Tru-Lock mounts and 26mm rings, that was done promptly and courteously.
