COOSEFAN Report post Posted February 17, 2008 I can't believe I'm doing this, but my EL's are up for grabs I don't have a choice really, but it's between seasons and I will buy another pair this summer! These binos have special powers! All you need to do is get up on a good vantage point in the middle of Coues country and slap these "bad-boys" on a tripod........then sit back and watch all the Coues bucks appear! Quite a few folks on this site can attest to the magical powers that these binos have.... you oughtta buy em' and see for yoursefl! These EL's have obviously been used....ALOT, but I take really good care of my equipment. The lenses are flawless, and they are in excellent working condition. There are some scratches or wear marks on the frame but no blemishes anywhwere else. They have always been transported in either the hard case or in a padded case in my pack. They have never been dropped but they have slid over a rock or two and that's where the minor wear on the frame has come from. These EL's have the "Outdoorsman Adapter Pin" installed in the frame and you would need to use the "Outdoorsman Adapter Post" in order to utilize this adapter for tripod use. I will leave the Outdoorsman plate on the post if you have that tripod head. I believe this product from Outdoorsman's is the safest and best way to adapt the EL's to a tripod. These EL's are the 8.5 X 42 model and when used in conjunction with the 15's......they make for a deadly combo on Coues! I can negotiate on price if you do not need the tripod adapter stuff, and I will donate money back to CWT.com if they sell here! Also I will ship for free and I'm located West of phoenix and can meet you if interested! Thanks for looking!

firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted February 18, 2008 Allthough these binos say "Swarovski", they are pretty sweet! I personally have seem a 100 3/8" buck drop in his tracks with these binos, as well as looked at deer in 36B and in Mexico, so they work wonders internationally! Jim, that will cost you $300 please. You have the address! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

COOSEFAN Report post Posted February 22, 2008 That stud is rock solid! I don't even know if you can take it off? I know with the normal screw-in pin that Swaro offers is not as secure as the outdoorsmans. I have had both and I was always having to tighten the Swaro pin and have never even thought about it with the outdoorsmans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
