Conetrol scope mounts

Markhm · July 31, 2014, 01:56 AM

Hi All, a good friend here in New Zealand has 2 sets of these and is looking for another. He has had no luck with talking with the owner in TX. He never checks email, fax doesnt work etc. Does anyone have any help please? Any other retailers that sell them (at a good price?). Thanks gents

SFAIK, Conetrol is a family affair, and old age might be a factor. I bought a set in 1971. Probably should check with such as Brownell's or Midway, to see what's in stock.

Always sad to see a pop or mom & pop firm churning out high-quality, high-value items stop making things just because there's no competent kids or anyone else to take over the business. However, it's also probably due to market factors - people don't want to pay for high quality anymore, generally speaking.

Conetrols are the most aesthetically-pleasing mounts I've ever seen, save ultra-custom.
