Exhibit A

Exhibit B

Both listed by the same company.  One is listed in LA and the other in China.  Is this the same sling?  I don't see anything refering to it being an airsoft copy.

Its interesting to me that none of the site vendors show that color/camo and Magpul doesn't show it either.  Also interesting that if you google ms3 a-tacs the first hit is made in China but says the brand is Magpul.  I'd have to say there is a fair chance that it is a copy.

I would post this question on the Magpul forum here. You will get your answer from Magpul and they just might like to know about it.

Not sure if it's relevant but it looks more Multicam to me than A-TACs... maybe intentional mislabeling just to get someone with an A-TACs itch to buy without actually looking at the pictures?

You can tell from just the packaging that it's either bootleg or the PTS line....

at no point in the article does the poster claim that the item is magpul.  Only the picture says magpul, and lister says it's COMPATIBLE with magpul gear.  That's a fake.
