Monoframe Lens Holders

Hi All,
I'm hoping you can help me with some measurements from the various manufacturers of monoframe lens holders that attach to the sights.

I'm currently using champion frames and want to find a monoframe lens holder that I can swap the lens from the champion fames to the monoframe lens holder.

The diameter of the lens from the champion frame is 24.5mm.

Appreciate any help.
Thanks
Peter

I fit a Champion 25mm lens into the Anschutz and the MEC monacles. Both fit, as the monacle frames are just slightly smaller than the Champion, so there was a slight gap. The Anschutz was a better fit - less gap, and enough extra screw length to work as-is, but I like the MEC system better - with a longer screw it could work. The Anschutz lens frame has a long arm that bends towards the target, so you can only use Anschutz lens holders. The MEC is a 2-piece design with the long shaft coming back from the sight and terminating in a joint, so a lens holder with just a regular arm can be fitted. This might let you fit your entire Champion lens holder with lens onto the monacle system.

Below are links to both systems with the Champion lens fitted. First is Anschutz, second MEC.
