    I am surprised Magpul doesn't go after counterfeiters like this guy, with nearly 1000 sold already.
    Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty.

      The fakes are packaged the same way.

        Ebay sucks. It was cool before the ebay stores popped up, and you could find some used stuff at decent prices. Now, it's just another way to get scammed. There are very few things that I'll actually even search for on that site.

          The gold would be cooler though

            Over 3,000 sold. Click seller link and you'll see 3 listings for back-ups with the same picture. Totals over 3,000 sold with this identity.

                If some level of government had that information, what would they do with it? How would having that info benefit public safety? How would it benefit law enforcement?

                  Not sure why people will buy questionable stuff off eBay just to save a couple bucks. If it's going on a firearm that you might trust your life to, isn't it worth just ordering it directly from he company itself or a reputable dealer, or is it really that important to save those few dollars?

                    Those would be most excellent for a range toy.

                      Look at the negative feedback comments.

                        Yeah, given that "genuine" Magpul BUIS are twice that, I'd say.......

                          People cut corners in the dumbest places.

                          It's like when I see people in expensive cars and then buy the cheapest tires imaginable. They're depending on those tires to keep them safe in ever changing weather conditions.

                              I wonder if these have adjustment capability?

                                They look legit. Correct packaging and what are these now? $25 a piece here in Arizona and Alaska. So it’s not breaking the bank at all in price and they look legit. Could they be fake? Sure. The Hong Kong ���� does raise a flag. I would pass.

                                If you’re concerned they are fake buy somewhere else.
