I came across this while web surfing and was wondering if anyone knows anything about it and if it's comparable to the Hawkeye. It is available in 17" and 90* adapter. The link below has it on sale.

A lot of unanswered questions there: Does the objective end rotate so you can see around the entire 360 degrees? Is focusing adjustable or is it fixed? Where is it made? If its "made in China" they can keep it. The 7" length would be of little use. Gotta have a 17" so the entire bore can be inspected, half from the chamber and half from the muzzle. I'm not passing judgement on it, I'd have to see one and compare it side-by-side with my Hawkeye. Total cost of my 17" Deluxe, focusing with the hard case was $620 delivered to my door, so to me, there is not enough of a cost difference to consider this one.

Monty's the owner of Gaging.com and a great guy to work with. I've purchased several items from him and he does his best to find what you need within your budget. He's extremely knowledgeable. Go for the 17" with adapter if in your budget.
