L1A1 Trilux scope and original top cover

Willie_715 · January 01, 2006, 15:23

I am new to the forum and have peeked in time to time as I have owned an L1A1 for some time now. I decided I wanted an original style trilux top cover not the weaver rail adapter. If anyone has any idea where I may purchase a trilux scope or the topcover I would appreciate the help, thank you.

Does anyone sell the 7.62 bullet drop cam? Many of these only come with the 5.56mm cam.

TAPCO is, apparently, going to sell new 7.62 cams.

Unfortunately, that was posted by TAPCO in 2002, so I don't think we'll be seeing those now. I think they sold out of them a few years back.

There is a growing group who believe that there is no .223 / 7.62 cam, just a differeence in the zeroing to allow for the different calibers. Stay tuned, there will be a range report to confirm/deny this as soon as the snow melts so I can find the holes the target stand is supposed to go in!
Several have measured very carefully, including me, and we can't find any difference between the "2 different cams"
