I have a Redfield Tracker 2-7 that has no horizontal adjustment. Does anyone repair these anymore? I haven't heard anything good about Iron Sight. And L&K may be out of business.

My step father sent his off to some outfit, spent something like $150 and it came back just as broken as when it went out.

seems like you'd be better off to invest in new glass at this point.

I've sent a few scopes to Iron Sight, Inc., including a pair of Denver Redfield 2-7x, and have been nothing but pleased by the quality of work. The prices were in sync with the type and quality of the work, but the wait time is quite long, often a year or more. www.ironsightinc.com

I will second what 260Remguy has to say about Iron Sight, Inc.
I bought a Denver Redfield 2 & 3/4X on this site with a Post/crosshair reticle, they are hard to find. The scope looked like brand new as the clown described it, but he failed to mention that it was blurry enough to render it unuseable. So after paying that moron $125 I sent it off to Iron Sight. They get $95 to recondition a Redfield scope(target models cost more).
Scope came back perfect, crystal clear, sharp as could be. Because of the rarity of the scope, I felt it was money well spent, but only you can decide that on your scope.
I was totally pleased and would not hesitate to use them again.

The scope belonged to my late father-in-law and looks like new. If that weren't the case I wouldn't be thinking about repairing it. I called Iron Sight today; no one answered and the voice mailbox was full. I was hoping there was another option. If not I may just replace it.

Ironsite is a very small company, two guys working on scopes and one lady in the office the times I was there.

I guess I was, they did a good job. I have a couple of Redfield scopes left. I had over 40 at one time. I sold all of them in the classifieds. I had accu track models, but they no longer work on them, no more parts.

Last I heard, their leadtime was about a year? Maybe they have cut their backlog down.
