I hope somebody has experience with these delightful little red dot sights.
The problem is mechanical and not optical, so I hope it can be a smithy question.
The Optima 2000 is 1 x 1.6 inches and has two windage screws and one elevation screw. One of the windage screws must be loosend before adjusting the vertical. When adjusting the vertical, a small spring screwed itself out of the screw hole. I see no threads in the adjustment screw hole, and so suspect that the spring was used as threads. Anyhow, after they said to sent it back for repair Bushnell/Tasco says they forgot they don't have parts for that one. Advice/instruction will be gratefully accepted. Tasco wont even talk about it. You can't get a new one of these.

Many thanks
