Cedric 132 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 I have a recently aquired scope marked "Leupold". Anyone know of how to tell if it's genuine or a copy ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Has it got a serial number and barcode etched onm the underside? http://www.leupold.com/resources/counterfeit-warning/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
geordieh 74 Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Hi Cedric Definitely a fake mate I bought one a while back with the same serial number 8888sc I paid £30 for it and for a £30 scope it was ok. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cedric 132 Posted August 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 Walshie - thanks for that link, most illuminating ! Geordieh - it's a bummer, I gave £150 thinking it was genuine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cedric 132 Posted August 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 PS. It's still a pretty good scope though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Matthew Phillips 36 Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 If you bought it off an auction website then complain. Regardless selling counterfeit products is against the law. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
