I bought the rings and the dew shield for TAK Mewlon 210. I’m very happy with the purchase, very well make, great quality.

I got the rings for my Mewlon 180c so that I could add accessories without damaging the OTA. I was reluctant to add rings because, in addition to being a superb scope, the 180c looks like a work of art.
The Rouz Astro rings are light and sturdy, and look nice on my Mewlon.
Also the customer service is excellent. Rouz responds quickly to questions and the products are shipped promptly.
Highly recommended.

Mewlon 210 Rings:
I had read some info in CN posts about Rouz Astro rings and I have been looking for a lighter weight option to heavier steel and aluminum rings for my larger diamter scopes. Since I just purchased a Mewlon210 and was concerned about the increased base weight over the 180c. Reading the testimonials touting how strong and durable these rings are was what caught my interest. The weight savings between the metal rings and these rings for my 210 was a savings of at least 3 lbs each so with two rings that was a lot of added dead weight. I received the rings and Rouz was very attentive and helpful. He went beyond the call and even supplied me with some additional mounting bolts. I started out using just one ring to mount accessories on the scope since I am using the included dovetail on the Melwon for now. I really like the feel of the CF and how the new inserted threads are built into the CF. The main advantage is the weight savings and balance for the full image train I will be using. I can easily say that I am glad I came across these rings. They are resonably priced and still high quality. I have started to think about switching over more of my current gear over to these rings. I am a very satisfied customer.

Mewlon 210 Rings:
DHL just delivered the rings, they are beautiful. They fit perfectly, are very light weight, rigid, and seem very strong. I can hardly wait to get them installed.
It turns out that removing the finder and mount shoe is pretty easy. Here is a photo.
Thanks,
