Can't find one anywhere, Merit optical attachment.

[Sandman4delta]

I have tried everywhere on the net that I could find a link to check.
But it seems that the Merit Optical Attachment has become extinct.
Any help finding one would be Awesome. I have tried the simple sticker with a hole in it. Not good for my particular situation. I kind of need that tunnel effect also.
Thanks All!

I've used one in the past. They were fine in the days of glass eyeglasses, but I don't like the suction cup on plastic lenses. Plastic lenses scuff easily compared to glass. In any case, I quit using mine since the byproduct of increased depth of field is reduced brightness. These days I'm using a flip down diopter. It lets me focus pretty well on the front sight and still keep the target in decent focus. You might try that angle. Check out Shooting Sight online.

How about the HySkore Pro Optic Aid Kit that Midway sells? Appears to be closely based on the Merit Design. I have used the Lyman stick on ones that go on your shooting glasses and they worked ok.
If you really need the Merit there's one on ebay right now up for bidding.

They have been unobtanium for a few years now. I have & use one on my my Bushnell shooting glasses whenever shooting iron sights. Many of my fellow club members have tried to locate one without success. Best bet is to search eBay and save it to get notifications, then act fast!

No direct orders per their web page. Refers you to Brownell's, Midway USA or EA Brown Co. FWIW
Checked Brownell's - their web site says 'dis-continued'! So does EA Brown.
Midway says the same.
GEHMAN sells one but its not as compact. CHAMPIONS Choice sells them.

I HAVE ONE. Last price at MidWay was 59.99. I'll sell mine for $50 shipped.
Send PM if interested. Comes in original box with paperwork. Iris works fine.

So I received a small package in the mail today.
Another member has graciously supplied me with one from his own collection of shooting stuff.
The price was right too. $0.00 with free shipping!
A really awesome gesture between two people who have never met. Another example of the caliber of people in the hobby and on this forum.

So a big "Shout Out!" to Philip @ Simson-Suhl on this forum.

Thank You Very Much !!

Just a quick update...
Did a little dry run with the Merit today with a couple of different weapons.
For me, it worked great.
I used an iron sight revolver, rifle with and without red dot and a red dot on my Glock 34.
Most notably, the red dots were sharper and more precise.
Can't wait til the ranges are open again.
So Thanks Again !!
