I have one and looking at the one pictured it looks a bit on the crude side compared to mine. Granted it does show some hard wear, but looking at the damage to the screws tells me it may not be made from the same grade of metal???

If you can locate a known genuine Eotech to compare.

Look at the threads on the battery compartment. Another area is the clicks of the adjustments.

On an Air Soft copy. Both of those areas will be different. The threads will look and work cheap. The knobs won't have the robust positive clicks of a real one.

His just does not have the finish out that mine has and every screw is torn, taken mine apart and mine does not look or do that, I got mine new.

Your looking at the wrong parts - as noted here, look at the glass: http://www.eotechinc.com/sites/default/files/client/recognizing-counterfeit-sights_0.pdf

Yeah it's red only and grainy, can't see a diode and it has the roundish part you can see behind the front glass people talk about, it's mostly just the battery cap and all being so beat up making me wonder
