I know there's crap copies out there. This price is too good to be true.

Well derrr me. Sorry, I was blinded by visions of a MK4 on my rifle. Crucial words must be read. Still, $175.00 would be too much to pay for that junk replica tube.Last edited by m1aowner; 10-26-2006, 1:27 AM.Comment

I remember a while back someone on arf went into detail on how to spot the replicas. They use different font style, different spacing, etc. Also I believe there was something about raised/indented text. The general concensus was, I believe, that they are crap and won't last long but they can be fairly nice on a .22 or the like. It's essentially in the same category as the Aimpoint/ACOG rip offs; they were made for airsoft and won't hold up to the abuse of a normal rifle, but something small should be alright (just don't expect lens, image, light, etc quality that you get with a real Leupold.
I know someone who got a cheap Aimpoint to put on one of their rifles. The thing got suck shock from each shot that the dot litterally bounced around inside the objective. One shot it would be dead center, the next it was bottom right, then upper right, lower left, etc. It was find of funny. He took it off and lerned his lesson (as did I).

I read a review on them a while back.
The China and Hong Kong models were useless because they can't track after every .308 round.
The Indonesian models where pretty good. Has some problems at max zoom.
$175 is around there, since I can't find them on eBay anymore. They were going for $150.======Comment

Anyone with a fake copy of a US scope normally produced by US co w/US labor (and whose companies often support 2nd Amend/RKBA causes) oughta go straight to hell.
I get really P.O.'d by folks looking for "ACOG clones, but only wanna pay $200".

Yep, fair enough. Any valid company with valid intellectual property should be respected.Originally posted by goseI feel the same thing about Aimpoints
But buying Red Chinese crap guarantees that you're not doing so - and ultimately your $$ spent on such illicit purchases are helping fund Chinese missiles aimed at you.
