Installing Night Probe Mini with a Clip-On Adaptor directly on the scope is the preferred mounting option and this is the only option when you do not have enough Picatinny rail length in front of your daytime scope to install a Clip-On with the Tactical Side Mount .
The most common example of this set-up is a bolt-action rifle which, after hunting a deer before the sunset, you need to quickly re-equip for shooting a hog or a coyote at night. It is a really fast and easy conversion.
The adaptor clips directly onto the Night Probe Mini, slips over the scope objective lens hood and clips-on.
Your daytime scope keeps the zero when the Night Probe Mini is snapped on or taken off.
The Adaptor Sets are available in the following sizes:
SMALL ADAPTOR SET for daytime scopes with front lenses ranging from 24 mm to 40 mm. It comes with four fitting rings of the most common sizes: 30 mm, 39 mm, 42 mm, and 47.2 mm. These sizes refer to the internal diameters of the rings, which are equal to the external diameter of the front lens hood. The adjustment screw allows for some diameter adjustment for each adaptor size.
LARGE ADAPTOR SET for daytime scopes front lens ranging from 32 mm to 56 mm. It comes with three fitting rings of the most common sizes: 39 mm, 56 mm, and 62 mm. These sizes refer to the internal diameters of the rings, which are equal to the external diameter of the front lens hood. The adjustment screw allows for some diameter adjustment for each adaptor size.
CUSTOM-SIZE ADAPTOR SET consists of one custom-sized fitting ring to fit the front lens hood of the chosen diameter and the adaptor appropriate for that fitting ring size. The adjustment screw allows for some minor diameter adjustment.
To choose the adaptor size and the size of the fitting ring, please measure the external diameter of your daytime scope front lens hood with a caliper. Traditionally, front lens hood sizes of daytime scopes are measured in mm. If you do not have a caliper with metric units, please note that 1 mm = 0.0397 inch.
If the diameter you measured matched one of the most common sizes of fitting rings supplied with the Small or Large Adaptor Set, then you can just order that set from this webpage, and it will come with the fitting ring suitable for your scope.
If your daytime scope lens hood is of a size that is not listed for one of the standard sets, then please choose the Custom-Size Adaptor set and provide the exact measurements of the external diameter of your daytime scope objective lens hood required for us to make the custom fitting ring for your scope.
If you already have an adaptor and need a custom-sized fitting ring for another scope with an objective lens size within the size range of your adaptor, you may order a custom-sized ring of that size.
We encourage you to be precise with your measurements. The custom-size adaptor set and custom-size fitting rings, which are custom-made to fit your rifle daytime scope lens hood, are sold as a Non-Refundable item.
