andruxa 0 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Expert's help is needed: knockoff or real deal? http://i50.tinypic.com/29bdgrc.jpg http://i47.tinypic.com/34zfsiu.jpg Suspicion caused by the Philips screws on the bracket mount and the unwillingness of the owner to send more photos of the red dot sight and its passport. What do you think? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fallschirmjager667 729 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 that is fake Quote Link to post Share on other sites
U.S. Pratorean 1,234 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) I say PRC crap. 200 Euros= 229.00 USD, it should be twice that. Also the base should have standard screws not phillips and the contact points on the backside and the lower loop is brass and the contact points are exposed not painted. Look at the one illustrated on Kalinka optics. Edited July 15, 2012 by U.S Praetorian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sidewinderl 43 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Yeah, it looks fake. http://tantal.kalashnikov.guns.ru/kobra1.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HappYBallZ 31 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) In Russia new they are about $300. Could be just a newer revision- or a fake with legit box lol. The sellers behavior is odd for sure. I say fake too. Here is the Chinse - "copy" http://gr.3dn.ru/publ/5-1-0-8 Edited July 15, 2012 by HappYBallZ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

U.S. Pratorean 1,234 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 The new Russian Kobra's do have lightening cuts and made in Russia beneath the serial number but it is centered. However, the locking lever is different, the exposed brass remains and the bracket screws are flathead standard and it does not come in the box like the one pictured. The box is different and comes with the camo pouch and adjustment tool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andruxa 0 Posted July 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Thank you guys! If interested of course, right below my last conversation with the... I don't know how to call him.... As for myself I would rather stay away from this website (www.rusmilitary.com) in the future. >>>> I'd rather buy from Kalinka Optics as theirs 2012 version still has bracket mount with FLAT head screws, but yours Chinese knockoff has PHILIPS screws. It is strange that You refuse to provide pictures, but making some pointless accusations. Alright, in this case I am going to spread the word, I will ask experts and we will see who is the IDIOT here!
