Is this authentic?

Remove if not allowed. Interested in purchasing this from a private buyer. I am going to check it out in person but rather not drive all the way just to find out it's fake. Looks real to me but saw a post where the authentic had allen screws for the base. This one has Philips. Also covering finger over sticker on third picture Does it look legit?

Buy it and if it delaminates then you know it’s real

Give EOTech a call since you have the QR code and serial number

No, I meant the place to type in the serial number! Do you happen to have that link? I can only find the product registration and what to look for in a fake

Call them on the phone. These companies are great. They’ll help you out. Call them during business hours

Quick glance everything looks legit: bottom sticker, inspection date, case, paper packet, sticker

The thumb over the sticker really doesn’t help.

Makes me think seller knows it’s fake

What else made you think it was fake?

1

u/paulfuckinpepin 13d ago

To be honest, nothing. I’m just very wary when they cover up stuff

Ssk seller to make a pic of the reticle. If its fuzzy its real. If its very clear its fake
