You can make press-on c-mount back caps from Shepherd 1" plastic leg
tips. These are available at Home Depot and many hardware stores, ~ 4
for $1. Just get a strong pair of scissors (e.g. kitchen shears) and
trim off the top half. Start at the top and make a gentle spiral down
to the middle, and then continue around to get it even. The result is
a perfect snug fit to c-mount threads.

This won't work with rubber tips, or brands other than Shepherd, but
Shepherd is the most common brand and not at all hard to find.
