That is a knockoff, it just has full Blackhawk trades. :-X

Yeah, it's the ACM one. I didn't mention the trades because I had no idea it had them, I was surprised to see them.

The quality seems great; I'm not worried about it breaking any time in the near future, if ever.

The magpul stuff hasn't shipped yet, they didn't start allowing air traffic in that area until this morning.

Not really... a lot of BHI gear is overpriced for what it is. That said, the build quality on the ACM Serpa clones is not bad at all.

As for the unexpected trades, many retailers don't show the trades in product pictures to avoid hassles from the trademark owner.

Some companys will just change one number, icon detail, or bar code to get around stuff like that. WORKS FOR ME!  :D

The trick is to offset the now-mainstream MagPul with a few other manufacturers aswell. ;)

I like this version better. What I would do is replace the sight with an EOtech.


Can't you remove part of the UBR? I have seen that compartment thing removed, and I think it looks better.


I really like those flip-up sights  :) The railed gas block makes it look a lot more stream-lined.
