[QUOTE="Black Tail Hunter, post: 815141, member: 59604"] I have an old ACMI that I picked up off Ebay. It is around 13" long and it seems to get down far enough to check for throat erosion on most rifles I own. I picked it up for 40.00, that being said the light source is not up to par with the new fiber optic units. I am having a tough time finding the special little bulb for it and am going to try to adapt an LED bulb to it. You may keep an eye out for used medical scopes on Ebay though, often they can be had for a lot less than the Hawkeye's and still do a good job. Just make sure that: they are long enough to get as deep as you want to go, that they have a 90º viewing angle, the tube is small enough to get down your smallest barrel and they have a good light source. Good Luck. [/QUOTE]
