Hmm, I never noticed the thumb screw was staked on. I guess I never tried to remove it. I was going to replace it with a lower profile nut but I ended up selling it to my brother. I liked using it though, I feel like I shot pretty well with it.

staked on! yep that's the word. I had it in my tongue..
I didn't really study it very well. but I could see a cross inside the thumb screw hole. I just assumed that it was staked on with an x
yes... the thumb screw really is big. I hope I don't hit it racking the charging handle.
so anybody else have ideas if I can tell it's the real thing? what about the weight?
You have the real thing if that nut is staked on there.
Like i said, none of the replicas have the nuts staked on.
Could you get us a picture please?
I'm not digging that LMT went away from the Forged BUIS to the Cast thing. I could be way off base, and am willing to be wrong. But I'd rather have the original forged unit.
I'd rather cut down a Colt or BCM carry handle.
I know, their PTS line. But the point still stands.
Im sorry but what exactly is your point?
Not everything made for real AR's is made for Airsoft. At the same time, buying from reputable American dealers will leave no doubt in your mind that you are receiving a genuine LMT or for that matter, American manufactured part.
Buy right or buy twice. Dont spend your money on questionable materials because the deal is "good". Ever heard the saying "its too good to be true". The fact of the matter is that it usually is.
Post a picture and im sure we can help you further.
I was saying they were right, some of the airsoft equipment is stamped with LMT logos. Some is stamped with Noveske, Magpul, etc. That's exactly why I don't buy any questionable stuff or 'good deals'. Buying straight from LMT, Noveske, Brownells, Rainier Arms, etc. is what I've been doing.
If you somehow misread my post as saying, buy the shit airsoft stuff and save a buck, that's not what I was saying. I was saying quite the opposite, be careful about the "deals" you get online.
