I have seen picture layouts a couple of times in the past year or so of new PU snipers and in the layout there are graphic signs of recent cuts being made to the stock channels or side wood. I think that is more than enough to make one a doubter if you are capable of individual thoughts. If its a duck it goes quack and that is enough for me. Many will argue but mine is real and I can prove it and so I say if you are happy with it great. There still seem to be others from the same now identified sources that do not make the grade and I say what are collectors supposed to do make a $750 or whatever they are getting gamble? The assemblers do not even make the effort to cover their tracks on many occasions! Not a good buying situation in my eyes. Good Luck and Buyer Beware! Bill :D
