Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44 new model

[Dioni A]

I've heard that it might be as much as one component added or changed from the original version that affected the durability. It sounds like this one component is the difference between the scope and every other scope in their line. Gives me a lot of hope if it's true. Based off the price point difference between this model and the other one it can't be much that's different. It's not like it's double the cost. I think it's $200 difference retail.

All we need is a parallax wheel/throw lever dealio to make that stiff c unt a little easier spinning and we're golden. Any leads?

My parallax has been at 250 and I haven’t felt the need to move it.

What questions are outstanding?

What magically changed inside to make this model so much more rugged than all the previous versions for one.

I think an RS1.2 is in my future. It looks to be the best field scope available.

@wind gypsy bet one of these would fit?

That has been covered a few times; they say no differences between the RS1 and RS1.2. No RS1 has been (notoriously) evaluated yet, but I believe that is in the works.

It's a while since I read it all, but I was left with a general sense of there being different accounts of whether the internals were different or not ... possibly Form and/or Ryan saying they'd sorted some things out, and Maven saying it was all the same. But again, I haven't gone back to read all the relevant posts, along with whatever nuances or carefully chosen words might have been used.

I'm surprised @Formidilosus hasn't JB welded a lever onto his parallax yet. It would match well with the masking tape and vet wrap.

He said he leaves the parallax set at around 300 or something and doesn't touch it

It was more of a joke.

Maven isn't listed as a brand on thier site, so someone would need to contact them to see if they'll do it.

Personally, I'm hoping mine loosens up a bit.

I have man hands.

Lower case m?

Lower case m?

Yes, a capital 'M' would draw too much attention.

It's true. Here's a picture of forms hands for any non believers.

Twist it back and forth aggressively a few times and it loosens up, temporarily at least.

I didn't know he wore denim shirts.

Somebody needs to quickly bring to market the Canadian stalking Shirtjac with pockets in the right spots to access while positional field shooting.

Zip out panel, or just torso chaps?

I'm a bit Marc-sist about those things - Marc Bolan, that is, so quick-relese for easy action would be the way ...
