New OKP-7 Replica

[BenJackson]

Proud to be bringing the first readily available OKP-7 replica to the UK market!

 

Currently have a Picatinny version in production, just waiting on some information back from the factory next week and hopefully I can launch a dovetail rail version at the same price point, or maybe ever so slightly more depending on cost. 

 

Discount available for initial customers willing to pre-order, before going to full price on general launch (ETA early August)

It will be going on my VFC AK as soon as it arrives, and then I'll make a product review to showcase, but it should be no problem

That's a pricey price, what differentiates it from the spina OEM OKP-7 that begun manufacture recently?

The reason I ask is Spina doesn't have an amazing reputation for electronics, I've had a couple go kaputt within a few months now with no impacts or anything

 

It's a shame as they OEM some of the weird optics choices like a half decent susat and G36 scope, but again the electronic stuff tends to fall short on their internal connections and that's quite a price difference

I can guarantee you that the product available on my website, and the one on the link sent earlier are not the same. You can see for one that it doesn't have the correct enamel finish.

What would you describe the finish as? It seems veeeery similar with that mottled look. Can't see much of a difference really. 

 

I don't know your experience with commissioning items from Chinese factories but they 100% will sell your item under a different brand even if they say they won't.

The one on the link looks like a matte finish, reminiscent of 3D printing (I don't know if that one is, I know some prop versions have been in the past.

Ah. Hobbnob posted the wrong link. I didn't even check it as I knew the item they were taking about. This one. As you can see, same finish, functional, reticle etc
