big lumber 9 Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Is there any way to get the tritium replaced in an elcan sight? I've heard its a pain because for the factory to do it it has to go international which is kind of a no-no...any info would be appreciated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MT Predator 2,294 Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Does Elcan have any offices in the US you can send it through? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jpanzer 1,265 Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Don't know about the Elcan, but I do know some com-bloc scopes and Trilux scopes for the FAL can have the tritium source in them replaced and made operational again. The method of doing so varies from scope to scope. But the tritium vials themselves can be purchased off the internet with a little searching... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
