Thread: Wrapped scopes

Have recently noticed alot of rifles that have what looks like camo fabric tape wrapped around the scope, barrel and can. Understand wrapping the can to reduce tinny sound when pushing through bush. What am I missing with wrapping the scope?

Protects against scratches, keeps resale value high.

Deer can't recognize anything wrapped in camo tape. They are very alert for scopes and barrels.......

So all I need is a couple of milesof it and roll myself up and they will never see me. Could do the truck while i'm at it

Hides the Nik-Stirling or guncity names.

All my high use scopes are covered with it.
Best and cheapest thing I could find to protect them.
Has nothing to do with being tacti-cool at all. I just like looking after my gear.

The reason for the camo tape is so no animal you are hunting can see what you see through.

Fuck I hate camo tape, Easiest way to make your nice rifle look like a cheap bush whore

You are missing nothing.

I understand wrapping scopes and suppressors, but the number of people who wrap their whole rifle makes my head spin. What is the point of floating a barrel if you then strap it down to the stock with shitty tape to make it look cool?
