You beat me too it. We have plenty of reflex/red dots on the market, who needs another one.

What the hell kind of question is that? :confused:Quote:
What the hell kind of question is this?
Mine is a rhetorical question.
I am shopping for a red dot sight and found one online that the price seemed to good to be true. So I did some research and found out that there are fakes out there and that they are hard to tell from the real thing.
Is there always someone waiting to jump on the new guy? Hint, this is rhetorical too.
Great read! I'll be interested to see what actual/beta users feedback. I'm a bit scared to find out what the street price will be. Considering Trijicon raises their price during Shot the past year or so. Now only if there was a 1-6 Accupoint.....:D
Talked to my Trijicon rep, no pricing info yet.
The SRS is now up on the Trijicon website: https://www.trijicon.com/na_en/commu..._newID=news_99

I'm responding to it, anyway, and here's another hint: there's always somebody waiting to jump on the guy assing up a thread.
Kindly note that "new" has little to nothing to do with it. Don't try to play the post-count card, it's not a factor.
And now, for the other shoe: the Report Post button is --->
thataway, for those instances in which one might want to report somebody who wants to bring up knockoffs and clones that isn't in a "hey, avoid THIS thing...!" format.
There is a really simple way to avoid fakes. Buy from a known and trusted source.
If you go to most optic companies websites, you will see a list of their dealers (or at least the ones that buy directly like us).
Scroll down to see us listed:

Thank you for your response.
I had no idea until three days ago the trouble with fakes. Now I am afraid of a good deal. A family member almost got stuck with a fake, don't remember if he said Aimpoint or Trijicon, the seller was surprised as well and took it back with no hassle. So I do some searching and find all kinds of photos and references to them.
I am just a Kentucky kid raised on a farm, when when you respond to me with "what the hell" and "ass" those are accusatory terms and frankly I don't take it well.
My point, that was missed, is the crooks that make fakes are probably already on this one too.
The optic looks great and Trijicon is a valued company that has produced gear that has protected my family members in the military. I am glad they are pushing the technology and improving abilities. The solar power is wonderful.
Edit.
The solar cell reminds me of the zeiss z-point rds.
