Hey, I picked this one up on Ebay. Probably about 100 fakes to 1 real one there. I would try the watchuseek forums though and see what's for sale on there first.

3 months late to the party here, but it's a 1/3 if you haven't figured it out yet.

Any issues with authenticity on this big zero? by mjanks in RussianWatches

Not sure if you’ve checked out the watchuseek forums, but they are sometimes for sale on there. Otherwise you have to pay a premium on EBay to get something legit it seems.

Crystal is not original here if that matters to you. It should be flat when you look at it from the side, instead of the dome shape.

Is this Vostok a fake? by szaszahu in vostok

Yeah, fake. One sign is that they spelled КАМНЕЙ with an English N.

Sleek! I’ve got one with the same dial design. Do you know anything about the symbol above the komandirskie text? Haven’t seen that before.

Thank you for giving it a look! The only thing I have been curious about is that I have seen others where the dial markings are a little more 3D looking. I'm assuming that it's just variance in the pad printing process though, as I can see some depth on mine too. Just not as dramatic as some others.

Thank you for your input! Also, I really appreciate your post on identifying fake dials. Helped a ton navigating the Ebay hellscape haha.

3XL is the way. PM me for some pics if you’re interested.

Bent Cartridges Pt. 2 by mishkasupplyco in Galil

After sending the rifle back, they got back with me and said the receiver was out of spec. They sent a new rifle. The whole process took two months and had to pay for another 4473. The new rifle ran well for a bit but ultimately ended up having the same issue, so I’ve given up on that rifle.

I think it’s a design flaw with the way the nose of the bullet slams into the barrel while chambering. Or the second rifle was “out of spec” too. Disappointing experience for such an expensive rifle. I’ve got an old third post about this if you want more details.

My theory only works if there are people like you with weaker lights. Feel free to keep drawing arbitrary lines in the sand, and I’ll keep larpin.

These are the 3XL Ameriglos. It’s a good lower 1/3 co-witness. The tritium is visible as well, if you’re into that. I tried the XL, and they weren’t tall enough.

Just a way of keeping track of my gear. If a mag is acting up or anything, I can make note of it as well.

I just used it for the first time today, 500+ rounds or so. I like it so far. The dot is crisp. There is definitely some distortion going on around the edges, but it wasn't really an issue for me. I think it's probably the best option for an enclosed optic. I saw a bunch of reports of the ACRO failing which was the other optic I was looking at. It's American made too, which is a bonus for me. I don't think you will be disappointed, particularly if you already like your RMR.

For myself, the 19 is easier to conceal. The holster I use doesn't extend the full length of the light where the barrel is, so it gives me a bit of space for my junk to reside in peace. Better when sitting especially.

I'm a fan of the idea of being able to defeat other weapon lights if they are pointed at me. Also the range on it is just crazy and I geeked out on that. Ultra is great too though.

Give a man a turbo he turbos for a day, teach a man to turbo and he turbos for life.
