Which inexpensive borescope?

+20 (I'm assuming on the TESLONG. I think it's like $50 on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07XDYN296/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I ended up getting one of these as well to keep the F/O reasonable safe. https://www.amazon.com/Husky-6-Compartment-Semi-Transparent-Heavy-Duty-Waterproof/dp/B07FLFDL3V

I like the flexible ones, mines already been in a spark plug hole of the motorcycle, to check on a possible broken valve/valve seat.

I do like how compact the flexible one is. Only thing I think I'd prefer about the rigid one is you can mark the rod so you know how it's oriented inside the bore (top, bottom, etc). I've marked the flexible one too but flexible and the orientation may not be accurate.

I mark the flexible cable with a small strip of blue masking tape to denote orientation and also to identify deposits or dirty spots that I want to check again after further cleaning. I've not had the mirror orientation change so long as I have the locking collar tightened down against the mirror fixture.

First one I ordered worked on a PC, then the next one works both on PC and iphone/pad, both flexible. Amazing what you see in a barrel or chamber. They also work for other things if you remove the little mirror.

I'm happy with both!

Edit: Both Teslongs

I6turbo. Did you strip and refinish the wood? That is stunning!

MINI SSS, I did strip it and refinish with Tru-Oil. It wasn't damaged but I like to get the heavy factory stain off and let the nice wood grain show. IMO, all CZ Walnut has nice grain under the factory finish. Not necessarily show-quality feature, but it's all beautiful, even if it's what we'd call plain-jane.

I have had the flex Teslong for around a year now..It was like 34.00 on Amazon..Cannot be beat for the price.

Got the WI-Fi one for my I-pad

Wound up getting the rigid one (Wi-Fi ) so I use it with my I-pad. Only one compatible.

They offer a flexible one that is iPhone and iPad compatible, but it's on back order until late March.

Exchanged flexible for Wi-Fi I Pad compatible

So I exchanged the flexible version for an I Pad compatible rigid one. Figured out how to get the images. My new fresh CZ 457 Varmint MTR barrel has lead smears along a short portion of the barrel where they test fired . So is this a bulge in the barrel? Should I fire lap to get rid of it? John

Does it shoot OK? Or is there some indication that there's something wrong?

Haven’t shot it yet. I know . Shoot it than diagnose. Can’t help it .

I had a worry about an area in my Lilja barreled 455. The next post shows the area after 3-4 strokes of J&B and 3-4 dry patches.
