I’ve had this laying around for a couple years. It came on an upper that I bought and pulled it off right away and tossed it in the parts bin. Didn’t want the scope anyway but was going through some stuff and took a closer look. 6 digit serial, the gold ring is the wrong color, the finish is all wrong. About 99% sure it’s a fake.

Post 1974 should have a Letter Prefix or Suffix. There may be exceptions but I doubt it. I'll ask my buddy.
