Killflash homemade

[geologist]

My understanding for a Killflash is its intended to reduce the glare off your optic giving away your position! Id be more worried about the flip up lens cover and keep the sun at your back. Just my idea.

Good point, I'm going to put black hockey tape on the inside cap surfaces that are shiny.

Does it do anything for the ocular side of things? My understanding is killflashes normally function as a sunshade in addition to reducing glare/glint from the optic lens side?

Nort that I could tell.

I always mount my flip up covers to open sideways, works for me.

I haven't checked the threads on the end of my scopes yet but I wonder about the compatibility with photography filters. If the threads matched it would allow the use of affordable polarizers, hoods, honeycombs.... Thread adapters are commonly available as well.
