great quality

exactly what I needed to mount my guide scope. ended up fabricating my own piece of metal to attach the scope mount to the dovetail instead of buying the scope rings for $130.

Well Crafted

There's not too much you can say about a simple piece of aluminum except that it is well made. The brackets fit perfectly and the anodizing is equally perfect. I expect it to work well for many years.

Fit perfectly on the bottom of a 12 LX600

I got this dovetail bar so I could replace the stock counterweights with a 2D weight. The bar is built like a tank, but about 8oz. lighter than the old model. Well worth the money.

Great Addition

This dovetail plate is a great addition to my telescope gives me more flexibility with mounting additional items. I would recommend it highly and B & H offer it at a great price and deliver promptly.
