The only complaint is that the spring loaded push pin assembly is too loose that it takes to pieces easily unexpectedly.This review was provided courtesy of AgenaAstro.com
Nov 4, 2014Great bracket/base for Celestron 4se
Pros:Strong Construction,Value
Cons:Heavy
Comments:I used this bracket with the Celestron RACI Illuminated 9x50 Finderscope. This allowed me to mount the RACI to my Celstron 4se perfectly and is a much better bracket. I can now find objects so much easier! Would highly recommend to any Celestron 4se owner.

Jun 30, 2010Excellent bracket
Pros:Compact,Strong Construction,Accurate
Cons:None
Comments:Had to replace my worthless red dot finder by an optical 8x50 GSO finderscope. That came with this bracket which I can recommend unrestrictedly. Even though it is small and the counterbearing actually is an O-ring, the alignment stays absolutely dependable.
Bottom Line: Would you recommend this item? Yes
The alignment screws work very well and doesn't scratch the finder since it is made out of plastic.This review was provided courtesy of AgenaAstro.com
