Reviews & Ratings for BSA Optics Laser Bore Sighter Kit with Arbors in Heavy Duty Case — 21 reviews — Page 1

So the arbors have absolutely no grabbing power. When you shove them into the barrel they bend so far down that they spin and don’t stay in place. Save your money and buy bushnell bore sighter. Very disappointed with the product and the return policy,

Good bore sighter for the money, I had one of their earlier models for about 15 years and it worked flawlessly! It works great for normal (classic) hunting rifles. The people who are giving negative reviews either didn't read the instructions or didn't read the item description, and were just looking for a cheap bore sighter.

Yes, I let myself get sucked into this one at a clearance sale and I can sure understand why it was in the clearance section. The sight mechanism is impossible to keep in position while sighting in. The slightest movement causes it to rotate left or right. China obviously decided to make some money off of the BSA name with this one. My suggestion is to avoid this one at all costs and either shell out the money for a good laser one or take it to your local gun shop and let them do it for you. Some will do it free.

I bought this Collimator, in error. I requested "LASER Bore Sighting Devices", from the "search engine" and got this kit, a "type" that has been available for 50+ years...
This is the oldest type of "bore sight", available to consumers. It is virtually useless, for any firearm type, and sight, other than a "Classic Scoped Hunting Rifle", and is little more than a dowel, a magnifying glass, & a piece of graph paper...
The arbors allow the "stick" to more or less fill the bore, and hold the "graph paper" in front of the "traditional" telescopic sight tube. No: adjustment, vertical/horizontal to the Collimator, lights, lasers, or "target", beyond arms length. Nothing you couldn't duplicate with the aforementioned graph paper & cleaning rod... Useless, for Lasers, "Dot Sights", etc...
Oh yeah, you will need a "light source", and good vision, to utilize it...
By the time I was ready to use it, it was too late to return. Check the "Fine Print", & the tiny pictures thoroughly, before you waste money on something that will NOT work on AR's or handguns...

Overall, the product works as advertised but the trick is to have your rifle as steady as possible when adjusting your scope's windage and elevation because any slight movement will cause the sighter scope to tilt on the arbor inside the gun's barrel causing it to look skewed through your rifle's scope. Patience and a steady hand are key to this product. I'm however disappointed that it doesn't include a .40 caliber arbor, as that's a popular caliber for many handguns and carbines, such as my Ruger PC4. I was however able to sight in my .177 caliber Crossman Storm XT air rifle's scope in under a minute.
Pros: grid pattern on the optic makes it easy to zero in your rifle scope
Cons: does not include ,40 caliber arbor, which is a popular caliber for many carbines

I had bought this before reading any reviews. I was really worried after purchase until I got it and used it. I zeroed my .22 in around 20 seconds and hit
the target dead centre! I am really happy with my kit. I recommend to those having problems to be patient and if necessary try to modify the studs to fit your bore. Happy camping!
Pros: Easy to use, Quick and Accurate
Cons: Have to keep moving optic into place

bought this to sight in a s&w m and p 15 dose not work can not get a scope to to see grid the biggest piece of crap
Pros: can use to throw at people
Cons: everything

I can't believe anyone would sell this product! It doesn't stay in place and appears to be very inaccurate.
Pros: None
Cons: Doesn't stay in place; inaccurate

This product is junk. I followed the instructions and when I got to the range to see where I was at on the target, it didn't even hit the target at 50 yrds. I would not recommend this product to anyone.
Pros: none
Cons: damages bore

works good for the money
Pros: easy to use
