How to Use Your AimShot BS9MM Laser Boresighter for Optimal Results

Using the AimShot BS9MM is incredibly straightforward, designed for maximum ease of use. Follow these simple steps to achieve an initial zero:

1. Ensure Firearm Safety: Always double-check that your firearm is completely unloaded. Remove the magazine and visually inspect the chamber and magazine well to confirm there is no ammunition present. Remove all live ammunition from your work area.
2. Insert Batteries: If not already installed, insert the LR41 batteries into the AimShot BS9MM cartridge according to the instructions (typically positive end facing out).
3. Chamber the Boresighter: Carefully insert the AimShot BS9MM cartridge into the chamber of your 9mm firearm, just as you would a live round. Close the slide or bolt completely. The laser should activate and emit a red dot from the muzzle.
4. Position Your Target: Set up a target (a piece of paper, a boresighting target, or even a wall) at a consistent, known distance. A common starting distance for pistols is 10-15 yards (or meters). Ensure the target is plumb and level.
5. Align the Laser Dot: Rest your firearm on a stable surface (a rest, sandbags, or bipod) to prevent movement. Aim the firearm at the center of your target. The laser dot should be visible on the target.
6. Adjust Your Sights/Optic: While keeping the firearm perfectly still and the laser dot centered on your target, adjust your firearm's sights or optic (e.g., red dot, scope, iron sights) until their aiming point aligns perfectly with the laser dot on the target. For most optics, this involves adjusting windage (left/right) and elevation (up/down) turrets. For iron sights, you might drift the rear sight or adjust height, depending on the type.
7. Verify and Remove: Once your sights are aligned with the laser dot, carefully open the action and remove the AimShot BS9MM cartridge. It's good practice to always remove the boresighter immediately after use.
8. Fine-Tune at the Range: The laser boresight provides an excellent preliminary zero. For ultimate precision, a final fine-tuning at a live-fire range is recommended. This involves firing a few groups and making minor adjustments based on actual bullet impact. However, your initial laser zero will put you very close, saving a significant number of rounds.

Comparing Boresighting Methods: The AimShot Advantage

When considering methods for sighting in a firearm, several options exist, each with its own pros and cons. The AimShot BS9MM laser boresighter offers distinct advantages over traditional and other modern methods.

• Vs. Traditional Bore Sighting (Looking Down the Barrel): This method involves physically looking down the barrel (if possible for the firearm type) and aligning the bore with a distant target, then adjusting sights to match. While effective for rifles, it's often impossible or impractical for handguns due to their shorter barrels and fixed sights. The AimShot BS9MM makes this process simple and effective for pistols, where traditional bore sighting is not feasible. It also eliminates the need to remove the bolt or disassembling the firearm, preserving your setup.
• Vs. Muzzle-Mounted Boresighters: Some laser boresighters attach to the muzzle. While these can be effective, they can be prone to misalignment if not perfectly centered on the bore or if the muzzle crown is uneven. The AimShot BS9MM's chamber-insertion design inherently aligns with the true bore axis, minimizing potential error from external mounting.
• Vs. Optical Collimators: Collimators use a grid pattern to align optics without a laser. They are effective but require a clear line of sight and often a dedicated setup. The AimShot BS9MM provides a single, clear dot, making it intuitive and quick for rapid sight alignment, especially for handgun sights and red dots.
• Vs. Live-Fire Zeroing: While a live-fire session is ultimately necessary for final fine-tuning and confirming point of impact, starting with an AimShot BS9MM saves a tremendous amount of time and ammunition. It transforms what could be a 20-30 round initial sighting process into a 3-5 round confirmation, dramatically reducing costs and range time.

The AimShot BS9MM’s design prioritizes ease of use and accuracy by inserting directly into the chamber, which is the most reliable way to ensure the laser beam is perfectly aligned with the barrel’s bore. This ensures you're starting from the most accurate possible point before even firing a shot.

Maintenance and Care for Your AimShot BS9MM

To ensure your AimShot BS9MM provides years of reliable service, a few simple care steps are recommended:

• Battery Management: Remove the LR41 batteries when the boresighter is not in use for extended periods to prevent battery drain or leakage, which could damage the unit.
• Cleaning: Gently wipe down the brass casing with a clean, dry cloth after each use to remove any residue or grime. Avoid using harsh solvents that could damage the laser diode.
• Storage: Store the boresighter in its original packaging or a protective case to prevent scratches or damage to the laser emitter. Keep it in a dry, temperate environment.
• Handle with Care: While durable, avoid dropping the boresighter or subjecting it to extreme impacts, which could affect its internal components or calibration.
