Quality at an affordable price!
I purchased the Finderscope hoping to attach to my 4.5" Newtonian to the stock attachment screws this was not possible without removal and new holes and screws. I have fabricated my own mount from a small camera tripod head and attached to the tube r...

Excellent product! After I bought it, many people from my Astronomy club decided to order an identical item.

Nice finder bracket
You see ads for finder tubes all the time, if only you had a bracket, well here it is! Or you want to upgrade an old focuser bracket, this is perfect.

Nice Fit and Finish
Purchased this base along with a dual-speed GSO Crayford, and GSO 8X50 RACI finder for my Orion ST120. The fit and finish of the base was excellent, as is its ability to securely hold the finder scope. Very pleased with this economical alternative ...

Simple design & great performance
This product works great. I like the included mounting holes in addition to the two sided tape, as I usually bolt the base to the scope for a stronger mounting.

Rock solid performance
This GSO finder was purchased for my Orion ST120. It is a perfect complement to my scope, and it has served me well while star hopping. Combined with the GSO base and dual-speed Crayford focuser I purchased at the same time, it provides a rock soli...

Good finder scope
Our Meade 6 inch Dobsonion came with a "red dot finder" that was nearly worthless. We replaced it with this finder scope which I would highly recommend to anyone whose telescope has one of these "dot finders."

EZ two screw alignment
Excellent fit for my Stellarvue F50W2 finder. I like the ease of alignment offered by the two screw design. The included O ring eliminates any free play and holds the tube a little more snugly so it won't rotate with a heavy eyepiece in the diagonal...

Never going back to 6 screws
So far superior to 6-screw brackets that there's no comparison. Two quick adjustments and you're fully aligned with the 'scope. The O-ring could be a bit fatter, but otherwise, this bracket /rocks/!

Excellent bracket
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 dep...

Excellent!
I've used both the traditional and the "reflex" types of finderscopes. For me, there is no substitute for the original Telrad finder. I LOVE my Telrad and can't imagine being without it. The bullseye pattern is very conducive to locating and then cen...

Great red dot finder!
I own about many red scopes and have bought the GSO and the Antares versions on Agenaastro more recently. These finderscopes are dead on and you can't beat the prices here. The GSO and Antares are identical except that the Antares version has the p...

Great bracket..gets the job done!
I needed a bracket to hold a 9x50mm finder on a small refractor with a Crayford focuser, and this does the job quite well. The shoe is small enough not to crowd things on the scope, and it always comes back aligned after each setup. Well made.

Great finder!
This finder came with my new 10" Dobsonian and it is by far the best finder I have ever owned. Sharp, pinpoint stars (after focusing by turning the front lens and fastening the ring behind it), very easy to align with the scope and accurate. Really a...
