Default flip up caps for Vortex Crossfire II 2-7x32

Are there flip up caps available for the Vortex Crossfire II 2-7x32? It is the Dead-Hold BDC reticle version for a centerfire

I just like the look of them better and ease of not dealing with the rubber band bikini cover.

I think Butler Creek caps are crap. I like Vortex Defender caps.

But in all honesty, I don't use caps. If I'm in the field the caps are open anyway and they provide no ding protection in the safe. Pretty much useless IMHO. I use a scope cover when storing and transporting.

These I got off Ebay.
Others from Optics Planet, BH photo, etc.
If you search around, they can be bought for $8-9 a piece......
Much better than what comes with the scopes.

I only run Vortex optics, I was happy to find these at a reasonable price......

Butler Creek are expensive and break easily.
I use chinese versions of it bought on ebay for fraction of price. The material they are made of are much more flexible. In last 3 years i had only one broke where the Butler Creek were braking on every hunt. (I have 12 rifles and hunt very often)
