Hawkeye??

Post by gus » Mon Feb 09, 2009 2:15 pm

Went to a gun show last weekend. I bought a Hawkeye scope. Has anyone tried looking inside a tractor with one of these?? :shock: :shock:

For those not familiar with a Hawkeye, it has a 17" long, 1/4" diameter
optic tube for looking inside gun barrels. It has a 90 degree mirror on the end if desired.

I have used "bore scopes" for years to look inside of transmissions, engines, and even fuel contols on helicopters. All you need is a place to gain acess. the ones that have thier own light is best. Company even had one with a video camera and you viewed what you were looking at on a screen.

Rigid sales something they call a see snake. I got one to look in finals, transmissions, or anything you like. Has it's own lite built in and you can adjust for brightness. Works great.

If at first you don't succeed, get a bigger hammer.
