[QUOTE="Ckgworks, post: 1451065, member: 105102"] I just picked up a cheap one off Fleabay to play with.....not many of them say the focal length but pay attention to it. Mine is about 1.25" in front of the camera so with the 90 adapter, its not a very clear picture, (read pretty worthless) Get as short as possible. However.....if you play with adding light from the other end, you can get fairly clear pictures for a $6.00 camera. I attached a few pictures from mine using a bore light. You have to angle the bore light and get it just right so it doesn't wash out the picture. One picture has no added light, so you can compare. By no means does it replace a real bore scope, but its cheap..... Edit to add: As dok7mm mentioned, get the right size....a 5.5mm (smallest I found) is snug in a .22 cal barrel, without the 90 attachment. [/QUOTE]
