    Harbor Freight Tools "Digital Inspection Camera" as a Bore Scope

    I bought one of the Centech cameras about a year ago from HF..i think it was 69.00 then. I got it for checking out some plumbing in walls but have found it handy for other purposes..it has worked great..only thing is that the camera head on mine is almost 3\4" across and is useless as a bore...

    .38 Flintlock?
