Just helped fit one. They don't have the teeth on the inside like the swaro one, you have to trim the lug off one of the rings and push it on. Seemed a little odd but its nicely made.Its relying on an interference fit ,you could put a little glue on it.Working well to date.

The turrets we make do not require glue or even necessarily the interference fit to hold them in place. There is an o-ring on the underside of the Swarovski turret cap that fits on top of the turret. Once you tighten the turret cap down, this o-ring grips onto the turret ring we build and prevents it from spinning on the trimmed down dot ring. By trimming the dot projection off the BT dot rings and fitting our turrets over them, it allows us to have a clean finish on the turret ring and provides more space for data on the turret, particularly with the 2 revolution turrets.
