I have 1, #3 I believe. I'm using an Ewing head. Love it. They are hard to find.
I recommend Holob Machine &Repair. HMR Edit to add link. |

Last time I went to his page, Ray had announced his retirement. I don't see an follow-on sources for his scope stands. Looks like another company has picked up sight smoker production.
He has a patent on the scope head - I wonder if he would license production to another company? |

Ray made some wonderful products, he will be greatly missed.
I can't help you with the Ray-Vin, but you may also want to look at Gary Elisio's scope head. I'm currently using a Creedmoor Polecat, but if I had to do it over, I would lean toward that one instead. |

Ray died.
Al Ewing stopped making his scope stand after his wife died. He may have passed as well. I recommend Doug Giraud's scope stand for those folks serious about high power and long range shooting.   Giraud Tool Company Spotting Scope Stand |

He sold his scope stand design to Ok Weber yrs ago like 2002 ish not sure what happened after Weber . High-power forum for sale page is prob best bet for finding a Ray vin. Bought one of Ewing's prototype stands in 1994 been using it since. |
