Re: Bore Light
Old enough to lose shit in my own home, and young enough to know I have done it, worse is when I lose shit , forget I ever owned it, and buy it again only to find the original when I go to hide the new one, and then a month later lose them both, forget I had them, go buy a new one...........This is how I ended up with three original Leatherman multi tools, and now the only one I can find is the one attached to my belt, so long as I don't set it down someplace and forget it.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

Re: Bore Light
The way that I misplace them? I'll stick with the $5 auto parts store lights.

Re: Bore Light
The one light I have never managed to misplace is the one bolted to the ceiling.

Re: Bore Light
This one I picked up locally at Ollies on sale for $.99. Actually, I got two at that price. It also has a "cat/mice" laser and magnetic base. By the way I got 100 batteries for them for $2.00 from China.(included shipping)

Re: Bore Light
Go to the fishing aisle at your local sporting goods store and get yourself one of those replacement lites for bobbers. They come in a 2 pack for under 5 bucks. Close the bolt and drop it in. So small they even work on .22s.

One of my favorite ways to inspect a bore. Some of those lights get too bright.Junk Yard Dog wrote:So does just pointing one end of the bore at the light directly while looking in the other end. It's what I always end up doing anyway since I can never find the gizmo's anyway.
