My two cents, again. May 14, 2008 Nicholas Taguchi (CA, USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The reason why they don't say this is metal is because the box doesn't say it's metal. I bought it guessing it might be metal. If this isn't metal its got to be the heaviest densest plastic I've ever felt. I believe its metal, probably aluminum. Connected to my tripod the fit is OK although the treads on the Barska could have been better, inital fit wasn't smooth. If I recall there are others commenting about the threads of this same maker elsewhere. The bottom pad area that connects to the tripod has a center triangler shaped recessed rubber pad. Once the adapter is locked down it feels very solid. The other end to be connected to the binocs looks and feels good, rubberized knob and half moon clip that keeps this screw assembly in place. Unfortunately, currently, I no longer have binocs in my possession that will accept a tripod mount to give a full useful review at this time.
