Have you ever wondered why the counterfeiters aren't cloning and Athlon?

The 2 counterfeit Leupolds I've seen 1st hand were both about 1/2 the weight they should've been.

Have you ever wondered why the counterfeiters aren't cloning and Athlon? Might it have to do with the sheer amount of Lupey-dupeys out there? Pure numbers, just think about anything that is copied….

Looks like the gold ring is stamped "Leupolo" Haha.
Interesting, if you save the picture to a computer, the label on the picture comes up as "Magorui" scope, which is a Chicom junk optic company. So, maybe they are the ones making the fakes as well. They can't fake Athlon, because to a Chicom, dat's racissst. lol.

Joel/AK: Another reason I NEVER have and NEVER will buy or sell anything through "gunbreaker"! Way, way, way to many of my friends and guntrading buddies have suffered there in so many ways. To hell with gunbreaker - I have never been scammed during a face to face transaction. To each their own though? Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

You can get the fake leupolds from China several ways. I bout a couple just to see. They all had the same serial number and actually had leupold written on them. Build quality was spot on and tracking was good. The tell tell was the glass. Poor glass and late evening its done. A freind of mine hunted with one a whole season. They are better than you would think except for the glass. But for $65 it's a hell of scope just not a Leupold

Damn scopes are as counterfeit and the bumbling idiot that calls himself the President of the United States Maybe if we report him to Leupold we can get our last president back.
