[cobirds] Scope repair for stripped mounting threads

My Swarowski scope had the threads stripped for the mounting bracket. I decided to try repairing it first before shipping it off. I bought a  thread repair kit for the 1/4 inch screw. It is pretty simple to do. With the kit came a dozen replacement inserts so I have 11 left. If you ever have the threads get stripped, for a 6 pack of beer, I will repair your scope. It certainly saves time, shipping expense and likely some cost for the repair.
