I have the opportunity to purchase an Aimpoint CompM4 at a very good price. However,the owner thinks it's a Chicom clone. Both my gunshop and I think it's the real McCoy but there's the rub,,how do you know for sure? It is stamped Aimpoint,has a serial number 1370993,and says it's Made in Sweden.
I remember something about the Chinese cloning these years ago but can't find that thread.
Can any of you help me authenticate this optic??

There is still a thread around here somewhere showing you how to spot a fake with pictures. Can not find it using my phone right now though.

Went to Aimpoint's website and read this: http://www.aimpoint.com/us/products/counterfeitscopies/16-tips/
I guess the owner was right about it being a clone. The red or green dot option gave it away.

And the gun shop didn't catch that? I wouldn't trust that guy.

simple the gunshop does not deal with aimpoints. Same way a person could by a fake and think it is real.

Rule #1:  If the owner thinks it might be a fake, its a fake

The problem with that is most of us I assume don't deal in Aimpoints either but we all know green dots are dead giveaway.
