I decided it was time to swap up the color combo on my rifles from black with fde furniture to fde receiver and rails with black furniture.
So I ran across these mbus sites on gunbroker. I bought two and called the guy to give my CC#, I even asked him if they were the real mbus and not the PTS before giving my number. He says "yes, these are the real mbus"
Well they came in today and they are not real. I'm not sure if they are PTS because I have a $10 pts set on an airsoft that I knew were fake. They have a set screw for the front sight detent and feel cheap as shit.
Well these were sold as real and I guess I should have known with the price ($54.99/set)
Here is a set against my fde ones.
FDE - Real mbus
Black - Fake mbus
Notice the difference in the screw heads how the cheap one is flared on the ends and is more shiny, also the pins are different.
The adjusting screw on the real has a hole in it
Look at the casting marks, and the fake doesn't have the centerline on the ghost ring.
The detent and the post on the fake is made of plastic.
