Mind boggling...................

Hmm. Yes, noticed earlier this evening whilst doing a 'trawl'. Let's hope all potential customers check out this forum if they're seriously thinking about bidding.

Oddly enough I stuck my head through the door of this shop on recent visit to St Mere Eglise and its full to bursting with all manner of "original" and "genuine" 101st and 82nd Airborne stuff too.

I was there earlier this year too. A mixture of battlefield pick-ups and downright Sexton Blakes, of which the telescope is one.

They do say "excellent reproduction" in huge red letter - is that an edit from the original ?

The listing has been changed - it had 'ORIGINAL' in big red letters to start with.
It would be nice to think that the forum had something to do with that.......

That has to be one of the best looking reproductions I have ever seen! Scary!

[Surpmil]

I like how the repro bracket has been roughed up with a file to give it a more "authentic" look, to say nothing of the utterly convincing scope number and leetelle broad arrow stamp!

[PrinzEugen]

And nice of them to number the bracket to the scope for that extra inauthentic feel - of and marking it mk3 when it clearly isn't.
