Blackhawk has little shame. Their stuff is made in 'Nam and the Chinese military has been seen wearing BHI Tac Vests while prepping for the Olympic games. And yet they maintain pretty good quality. For real?? So is it possible that EB could be getting real Blackhawk SERPA's and selling them for $40 shipped?

It's entirely possible if they're SERPAs that failed Blackhawk QA, or had cosmetic defects. That sort of thing has happened before. It would be surprising if they were retail-quality SERPAs.

Mine has no defects in it that I can see. The only problem I had was I got sent the black one rather than the tan one. But having to paint it is way better than spending another $40. In the 8 or so orders I have made from EB, that is the only problem I have ever had.

It's not real, the adjustments for the belt width on both the loop and paddle adapters are wrong. Also there is no tension adjuster, which will likely result in an improper fit since the real one used the tension bar to stabilize the pistol. Not to say it isn't worth it for half the price on a rig you're not using for a real firearm.
Edit: plastic looks to be a different quality, and the interior of the real ones has a different finish to it.
