Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I gave this 5 stars because I figured out how to resolve the problems associated with it.First, the on/off switch is horrible.The sight uses small batteries that fit into a tube and are held in place by a pointed contact and a spring. When you turn the knob to off it pulls the batteries away from the contact (feels firm).When the unit is on the knob allows the contact to connect and the knob feels loose.
The whole unit easily pries out with a small screwdriver and one can clean the contacts and lengthen the spring a bit.This will take the vagueness out of the switch and stop the laser from being intermittent.
Also, don't use an adaptor that fits exactly.Use a size smaller and adjust it until it fits the bore properly.That means tight enough to center but not so tight it gets stuck in there.If you find the exact size without having to adjust it and you force it in the barrel it may get stuck.It also takes a bit of effort to put the adjusting screws in the adaptors (one screw for each adaptor).Once in they will stay put with the adaptor.
Finally, while this is a red laser you do not have to bore sight your gun or rifle indoors or at night.It will reflect back in broad daylight against anything that's reflective, like a traffic sign.The neighbors may think you're nuts but it works great.
Once you overcome the funky switch, it works great.Just remember you will have to go out to the range to do your final adjustments.No boresight is perfect.They just get you close.
