Right, Rob, but white, while reflecting heat, attracts attention. There are situations where that's the last thing you want.

That's where the camouflaged version comes into its own!

The canon lenses  in white are by size not really stealth.
And I doubt the extra attraction would be problematic aside a football field.

How much would the Leica branded version cost?   :)

$600 but it will have a really nice red dot.

If you want me to make a bespoke one, then that figure of 600 is derisory; start at 2399 and we have something to talk about. You have to appreciate that I don't use just any old tubes, I use tubes ridden by champions. Think Iron Man competitors.

If you want the premium, expensive model, I don't do adhesive red dot: I apply dust of ruby. Price on application.

Ah clearly I'm not very familiar with this end of the market. 

I am, however familiar with Ironman competitors having been raised by a couple of them. One even set a world record!
I could probably source some raw materials if your supplies can't meet demand.  8)
