Gummer:
Loaned out my Minolta Standard 10x50 at the beginning of deer season,
got them back a month or so ago. Just took em out to look at
something..and evidently the guy dropped em as Ive now got double
images. Prism or oculars have moved in one. Anyone here fix binocs..or
know an inexpensive shop I can send these to?

Ive had these for..15 or so years, loved the *******s and Ive treated
them with tenderloving care... $@!!!!%##!!!! !!!

Any suggestions? Im not particularly good with optics and frankly..dont
have clue what Im doing with repairs so Im not even going to take the
pants off them.

Any suggestions or links would be great!!

You should take the pants off them. That's what's making it hard for you
to see. And Your buddy wants them back.

My buddy can go **** himself. I loaned him a .375 H&H a couple years ago
for a elk hunt in the Territories..and it came back with the front sight
busted off. It was an easy fix..but...no more loaning him spit.

One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that,
in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers
and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
