I have a pair of Nikon Monarch ATB 10X42 binos.  What I was wondering was if you could but butler creek flip up caps on the objectives.  The caps that came with it are kind of worthless they just fall out all the time and i dont want to lose them.  I was just wondering if that would work?

I don't know why not.  I just fitted my Pentax 8x32s with EO objective covers which cost me $7 shipped.  They have a set for the same price that fits 42mm bins.

Where exactly did you get the lens covers?

Jumbi,

  The text editor here kills stuff thought to be a competitor, so when I originally tried to identify it in my post I ended up having to rewrite things.  EO is the abbreviation for the outfit where I got my covers.  Try googling "EO bino*" and that should help you.
