Drop-in Bore Light

[GriscomRun]

I could use some help in finding this product. We've seen plenty of photos showing lighted clean and sparkling bores. But I haven't found this little light.
Anyone have a line on where I can get one ?

Lighted fishing bobbers seem to be the go-to ticket for bore lights.

For most of the time I use the lighted bobbers, but O'rily's auto parts sells an inspection light that is really bright and will fit into bores as small as a 22.

Cabela's/Bass Pro shops carry the fishing bobber lights, and also have small Cylume sticks about 3/4" long and .17in diameter.

LED Arrow Nocks also work well.

I used lighted arrow nocks. Bought a six pack five years ago and still using the same one. Battery is still going strong. They are small enough to drop down a 32 bore.

A trick a friend showed me was drop a clean unloaded nickel plated revolver/pistol brass/casing down the barrel of a MZ (rim up), then shine a small flashlight with some intensity down the barrel. You won't see the breech end of course but the bore really stands out. A 38/357 works well for 45 caliber and up, couldn't ell ya what say a 32-40 would take. Ya have to do a try and see using a smaller caliber than 38/357. Works when nothing else is to be had.

RMC OX YOKE is the one I use Not expensive and a lot better than fishing bobber lights for me

when it will fit / slide down a bore, I slide a 45 cal. Nickle plated case down the bore primer end up and shine a flash light down the bore. it has worked for me. and I do it at a gun shop when you want to see what it looks like.

One other option is to go to your local hobby store and look at the small round mirrors they sell for decorating. Glue one to the end of an appropriate sized dowel, slide down the barrel and shine a small pen light down the bore to see.

I use glow in the dark, flourescent, bracelets. They don't light up the night, but do pretty good down a barrel. About 8" long, sold almost anywhere toys or crafts are sold.

I have a couple of different bore lights and they work alright…stopped by Harbor freight looking for something better and came up with an Inspection Camera.. $39.00 on a close out ..I bought it and it is absolutely great for looking down the bores of my .50 Cals from the breach plug ,rifeling all the way out the barrel and obviously many other uses….

This is what I use.

I have a bunch of pens with lights. I take the lights out and use them. Good down to .36. They work great.

If you have any small mag flashlights screw the top off and stick the light in your flash hole it wont fall over cause it,s sitting flush on the flats where the flash hole is.

If you’re in a hurry, or just don’t want to buy anything, you can simply tape an LED onto a button cell battery and drop it in the bore. See how people make “LED Throwies”, and leave out the magnet.
