I am looking for a MOLLE scope pouch (or any MOLLE pouch) that will fit about a 13 1/2" rifle scope. Also some sort of hard case or tube that already has padding on the inside or could be added would be nice too.
Any ideas? |

maybe one of these could work

TT makes some hard padded cases, but I don't think they would work |

If I remember correctly, I think its about 10.5". Just out of interest, why is it that you want to carry a scope separately? Well, I am not the OP. But, I have been considering this as well. See, I have a rifle set up as dual purpose and here in the dense woods of the mountains of WNC most of the time a scope is a hinderance between the thickness of cover and the risk of damage while crawling through the brush. A lot of the time the laurel is so thick you have to low crawl through, and can't "walk" around it. With BUIS and a QD scope, well you aleviate most of these troubles. I have been stowing my Leupold inside my pack, but I think I would like a pouch to make it more readily accessible. |
Interesting, thanks for that answer 
I think the diameter is only something like 1.5" though so I do doubt optics will fit in, especially with qd rings. If you had something like an eagle hydration pouch with the hard insert, you could probably get something like a specter or acog etc in there with the mount though, but I don't have mine to test that any more. |

thats why you need a Aimpoint magnifier in a flip mount   I don't want to spend 400+ dollars just to make a red dot zoom. I would rather spend 100+ dollars and get a decent zoomable scope (something like 3-10x40). fair enough, but the 'cool-ness' factor is over the top  yeah, I have one it is slick as shit
what gun are you using and what is your "game plan" with it, i.e. hunting, SHTF for people, ect
you are still going to spend $$$ on a nice detatch and return to zero mounting system. I understand what you are trying to do, but it seams like a lot of back and forth to do it YMMV ETA: how about getting/using a shorter scope? something thats not 13", would be easer to find a pouch for it. |

Basically it will be for coyote or other hunting, HD, and the ever so possible zombie apocalypse
Pretty much my mind has changed I'm quite fickle about gun stuff until I am absolutely sure that I want to throw my money at it...
This is the game plan... Stag Model-1 with EOTech for main sight and probably a Bushnell or Nikon scope for long range. I would set the scope where I can see through it comfortably, zero it in, and make a mark on the rail where the mounts will sit. Take the scope off and do the same for the EOTech. When mounting, I would push the scope and mount down and pull back till it locks against the rails then tighten. I will try to do this and see if the scope will hold its zero. Not sure if it will
