RAPID7LIAM 7 Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Got myself a cheap Newton 3x42 monoculer to use as an add-on but need to know if a Yukon 1x24 lens will fit? A few people say they are exactly the same, it looks exactly the same as Yukon but someone else said they are made by the same people but not necessarily the same parts fit. Apparently Yukon dont do the 1x24 anymore and Newton dont do a dsa, if i could source the lens i'll make a dsa as i've been messing about with ideas for one anyway. Thanks, Liam..

RAPID7LIAM 7 Posted January 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Well i'll have to try and get one becuase i've heard a few people now saying they will fit, suppose i could take it in the shop and try it but they are going to order it in so hope they can keep it if it doesnt.
