Well worth $26. Does it have a rigid or flexi camera tube?

Getting one do down to 17 cal isn't cheap. These go for $120 US free shipping from Hong Kong.
Just looked up Endoscopes and found some 3.9mm dia on Ebay that have ability to record

Nice work, thanks for the pics, gives a good idea what its capable of. I wouldn't mind one to go down my 223 but would need a smaller one, that one might be just a bit of a tight squeeze.

Pictures look fine, more than enough to find problems.

yeah there ok for the money and they look about 20% to 30% better on the screen at the time of use the pics don't do it justice but it ain't no optical

borescope as these look along the bore not perpendicular to it .

and yes there good enough fo see if you can clean a barrel or if you have a bigger problem .
