Hey,

I have a quick question, I am an airsofter and with something i have brought second hand there is a Leupold Mark 4 Scope and i wanted to know if they did Replicas?

on the bottom it says: 
LEUPOLD 
MARK 4
3.5 - 10x40 M3
8888SC

It looks like the real deal, which is why i am asking about replicas!

Cheers

The only "replica" Leupolds I'm aware of were counterfeit scopes made in China.  If that's what the scope in question is, I would avoid it like the plague.  One of the SWFA guys can probably tell you if it's a real Leupy or a counterfeit from that information.  If the price sounds too good to be true... well, you know the saying.

A moderator should move this to the "airsoft" forum.

you can also call leupold and give them the serial number and they will tell you if it's the real deal.

Why? Just curious since the thread is about a Leupold rifle scope.

I'll be more obvious next time.
