yes they can and you can even buy tube rings ready made for them from Andrews ETC... if you want a smaller portable scope then go the SN8, else go the 10" gso. BTW striker has proven the SN8 to be very good photographically, go searching for his posting of his one and only iage from it. itsa pearler


BTW, I am adding a Meade 12" SCT OTA to my EQ6 in the near future, so work that one out weight wise
