I am not a big fan of replica optics as they tend to be not so good. I am looking for an Elcan replica that is worth a crap, anyone have any suggestions?
If you can give me a suggestion of brand and where to buy it I would appreciate it, I would also like to get a tennebrax killflash for it as well so if you know the size I would need that as well.

Ehobbyasia on Ebay carry the G&P Elcan replica for about $110-120. It's the only I've seen.

BigC, did you see that kid at SFOD at RED DAWN with an Elcan on his L-85?

That was my L85 that Maverick was using. It's an older Elcan, TGS I think? China has one out now, can't be any worse than the others (eye relief like the ACOGs....not so good).

If I could find a real steel Elcan for $300 or less I would buy it in a second but I have not found them for less than $600 and I have been looking for a LONG time.
I want the elcan for an airsoft gun that I might not even use that often, not my PTW.

If your going to say "Mk. 46" I would hug you, if I could fit my arms around you, that is.

Thanks for the linkage Rabbit.
Biscuit, you can give me hugs any day you want! It just might be for a Mk. 46.

Figured out which one I have: www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/ProductDetail?prodID=16162I dont know about the others, but this one is decent. Eye relief isn't horrible and its illuminated. Only complaint is the rear lens has the crosshairs engraved, and it sits in threads which are very loose. Sometimes I'll go to shoulder it and the crosshairs will be all sorts of crooked. Nice QD mount too. I believe Classic Army has one out now...
