I love how it looks so mechanical and steam-punk like....lol

BTW, good place to ask, how close is the color of the Magpul ladder rail cover to the FDE of their parts?

It has a multitude of functions that make it quite possibly one of the most bad ass optics that I've ever used. In less than 1 second, a quick flip of a lever will change the view from 1x to 4x (time to toss out those flip to side mounts... hey, anybody want to buy a replica Eotech 3x magnifier? lol). Carl Zeiss glass is part of what makes this optic worth it, having quite possibly the clearest, brightest and sharpest picture quality I've ever used on firearm optics, real or replica. This glass literally puts to shame ALL airsoft replicas I've ever used. You really have to see this to believe it.

The entire crosshair reticle can be electronically lit up, or a single 1.5MOA dot can be activated for RDS mode where the crosshair reticle is not useful.

If caught in 4x mode and you have an immediate need to engage at close range, the mounted Doctersight can provide a fast response, or if all else fails, iron sights are also mounted. These iron sights can be adjusted to three different positions, 11:00, 12:00 or 1:00 positions. 12:00 (center) is the standard position, while 1:00 and 11:00 are reserved for shooters using a MRD (Mini Red Dot / Doctor Sight).

Combat Modes:

CQB: 1X with Red Dot "Both-Eyes-Opn"
Long Range: 4X with ballistic drop reticle
Machine Gun: 4X with Red Dot and ranging mount
Iron Sight: (Heavy Rain and Emergency Defence)

'Fly
As far as I know, there are no replicas on the market. The one that seller had posted up for sale was his buddy's.

This one is his own personal unit. It's banged up from use in the sandbox. A unique marking that stands out is the laser etched "FP" on the side, which was for the group the seller was tasked to: "Force Protection."

Very close. I have the ladders on the 10.5" upper that's also seen on the first pic.

You can see more pictures of the colour matching here:

It cost me one of my custom pistols. I didn't want to do it at first... but in the end, I caved. I couldn't pass this up.

If I'm not wrong, it's about 2 K since there is one on sale like a few week ago. Maybe it's one that it's on sale.
