    Its not a false-positive as far as I can see - Kaspersky reports an attempt to load a known Trojan.

    could be worse than ebaybanned, they seem to pick people to pick and really messup on, i've never had stuff messed up with them at all and i order a fair amount of random stuff from them in the last year or so..

    as an aside i received a lot of spam from ebaybanned recently selling antibiotics, human growth hormone...etc

    some other news
    ur-tactical.com

    they do a lot of real multicam, acu tactical gear...quite expensive but they have a new site (which looks a lot like the old site as it happens)

    they have 15% off with a coupon code

    COUPON CODE:
    grand opening

    Best Regards,

    UR-TACTICAL TEAM
    www.ur-tactical.com

    i never ordered from them however, but they do have a biggish ebay account as well..

    I gave them one more chance by ordering a pair of gloves, and asking them to imburse me with the cookie monster jacket in exchange for the bowman...

    I have little hope of success.

    JHC Doc, why, oh why must you insist in ordering from Ebaybanned - even tho you say time and time again - NEVER NO NEVER AGAIN!:confused:


    This time - just say "you've no one else to blame - cept yourself."

    FYI, Elcan's Specter (sic) OS4X is the sight the British Army has chosen to replace the SUSAT. They call it the Light Weight Day Sight. That's just a little military joke, the scuttlebutt is that it works well but it weighs a ton. It's a simplified version of this DR, but unfortunately the DR is differently shaped enough that you couldn't use it for an up-to-date L85A2 look.

    yes the British army got one made to there own specs to replace the susat, went for a fixed 4x mag without the red dot function

    unfortuntley the clone is not a replica of the British version, someone over on Arnies was kind en enough to link to info on the OS4X (the one you linked to is not the british version)

    http://www.elcan.com/ELCAN_News/Bulletins/documents/SpecterOS4xSpecSheet.web.pdf

    the scuttlebutt is that it works really well but it weighs a ton.

    not really rumor all the elcans weight a ton tbh its there major downside with the complete line, was pretty much the universal feedback form the scar trials, dr works great after gen 2 but its like strapping a brick to your top rail :)

    Was the ACOG not an interim replacement for the SUSAT until their OS4X was out? Can't remember where I read that now...

    Probably they ordered a batch of ACOGs for testing. Anyway, they've just ordered 10,000+ of the OS4X, so that's going to be the main one from now on. They seem to be standardising on Eotechs for the short range stuff, like shotguns & MP5s.

    hehe why is it mad, eotech means fast reaction both eyes open to keep your peripheral vision prefect for reflex shooting with a shotgun :)

    Needs a funny picture too Lemming, I'm sorry...
    If it helps I did laugh a small bit, but it still needs a picture.
    However, should you shout it out next time I see you, I'll allow it.

    us marine: no problem
    royal marine: where did you say you got it from?
