Opinions on EK1 please.

09-02-2008, 05:53 PM

I have seen this EKI for sale and would welcome opinions as to whether it is genuine or not. It is a screwback, unmarked. It looks a little "new" to me. Thanks,
Peter.

Evaluate the item, not the story and not the seller's reputation!

If you PM/contact me without the courtesy of using your first name, please don't be offended if I politely ignore you!

Mike is spot on with this one. It looks new because it is.

Thanks Mike and Don. I thought it might be. It seems they're faking Imperial items as much as Third Reich stuff these days.
Thanks,
Peter.
