The price of this product is about the same as a gun store fee to boresight a rifle, and it is reuseable.

Pros:  Easy to replace / inexpensive batteries
Cons:  Wire is fragile and bolt won't close over it
Would recommend:  yes

Works great in rifles or handguns where barrel does not tilt. If the barrel tilts (Glock etc) then the bolt needs to completely close to site the weapon but the wire between the cartridge/laser and the power supply / battery box will block the bolt from closing.

Overall this unit functions as intended. I was hoping the wire would be a bit more rugged, nevertheless, a good product.

Used to sight in my 22 pistol. Seemed to work fine no issues, allowed me to get my sights adjusted to suite my needed. My only complaint would be the screw covers for the battery compartment, it would have been better to have had a quick access like a remote controller, since your not supposed to store with the batteried in it....

This product works as advertised and the price is right! Two concerns: one, the battery box dangling from the wires causes concerns for long life; two, the cover to the batter box has the tiniest screws that you need to work with that I'm concerned they'll either get lost, or I'll destroy them because I don't have an eyeglass screwdriver to fit them properly! What's up with that?

Pros:  Gets you on paper!
Cons:  It is what it is.
Would recommend:  yes

For those who seem confused this thing isn't ment to give you zero at 100 yards. Its a tool to put you on paper. If sighted in at 25yards you can easily see the dot. This will then put you on paper at 100 yards pending your caliber. If you want a precision laser sight or bore sight that can zero you in its going to run you closer too $300 not $30

Better instructions needed. IE can bolt be partially closed? Noted that dry firing not recommended.
