Supposedly a working clone. Not sure i would spend that much on a clone optic regardless of the price of the original.

i believe it was mentioned in a post a couple of months ago.
Nice optic imho, but large & unwieldy like the acog for airsoft (my opinion ey (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ) |

Ouch, thats a fair bit for something of questionable potential quality!
If they popped up for 1/4 or even 1/2 of that price i'd consider it, but at $400 not a chance if theres a risk it'll be rubbish. -------------------- QUOTE (GuzziHero) Well, I cant see a customs person really going "Oh dear, that looks like a banana mag and its not an AK mag...

The airsoft gods have answered my prayers! (if that replica is real) Price is high for a replica-I hope EBB or someone in CN makes a more affordable version.

Clone Elcan Spectre? Bitchin! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
... $400? Are you *fruitcage*ing kidding me!? For that price I could buy a real EOTech and a clone magnifier and accomplish the same thing with a likely much higher quality optic for the same price. -------------------- حَوّامتي مُمْتِلئة بِأَنْقَلَيْسون

When you consider that the real optic is over 2 grand it is pretty reasonable, it looks like a solid replica.

Chinese optics are hit and miss at best, infact i tend to find the cheaper ones (Aimpoint ML2 reps) are the best, if it is good then $400 wouldn't be so bad, but i'm not risking that amount of money on the chance it could end up to be another rubbish optic.

especially if you can get a perfectly fine RS optic like EoTech, used Aimpoint, or C-More for that kind of money.....

QUOTE (MCXL @ Jul 2 2009, 11:32 AM) When you consider that the real optic is over 2 grand it is pretty reasonable, it looks like a solid replica. The RS's MSRP might be around 2 grand, but they can be bought new for under $1,500. $400 for a replica optic ... I've had enough experience with replica optics over the years to know that they're often not worth the money. Rather than buying the same replica several times over because they keep breaking (or just malfunctioning), I'd rather spend the same accumulated amount once on the real deal and be done with it. That said ... I don't know if I'd be willing to spend $1500 or more on an optic I can't use with my NVGs. I'll stick with my real Eotechs (that cost less than this replica), and my real Aimpoints. $400 is insane. -------------------- Photos: My Photo Album

I would love a Spectre DR as they're supposed to have a better field of view in 4x mode than the aimpoint/eotch magnifiers. But to put it into perspective.... if i spent 400 usd on an a real deal sight such as an Eotech, I wouldn't have the magnification feature but i would have something worth a lot more.

So if you don't like the scope then why post at all?
What you've just posted would be the same as if i posted "I wouldn't buy it even if its 50p, BTW that gun sucks and is fugly" in every Armalite thread. Pointless and it'd make me look like an idiot like you have just done to yourself (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) -------------------- QUOTE (GuzziHero) Well, I cant see a customs person really going "Oh dear, that looks like a banana mag and its not an AK mag...
