Bill,
What needs done?
Send Cheryl Ackerman a text at Optical Services Inc. her number is (915) 740-4290. She replies promptly to a text, most times she's busy and doesn't answer a phone call as quickly.

Optical Services is a first class shop. Cheryl the Daughter of Bill Ackerman the Weaver guru learned from him and it was a forgone conclusion she would take over. They've done four scopes, two Weaver T's and two Unertl's for me all to perfection. I've had several other shops work my scopes including Premier Reticle and the old El Paso Weaver but Cheryl's work is flawless. You can't go wrong with this shop.

You could try Bob Seipp, 973-714-7958. He's in Pa. I have had very good service from him plus he's a great guy to deal with. Dale.

Just received back from Bob Siepp the two scopes for him to go through a Targetspot and JW Fecker. Excellent work and very reasonable cost. I'm thinking of sending him my Unertl just for a refresh. I mounted the Fecker on my BSA Martini and will be using it this weekend at the .22 silhouette shoot instead of my bolt action.

Too bad about Iron Sight retiring. Another example of us losing good people in the interest of what we do. I just got a 6400 Redfield back from them and they did a magnificent job at a very reasonable price. They had to rebuild the erector lens as it had delaminated and caused a very cloudy view. He does recommend Heritage Optics Repair as somebody to go to. I don't know anything about them but if you go to the Iron Sight website it's posted as a pop up and you can send an email to them. Bob
