Okay, if there are two ways for the marketing guys to do something, bet on the wrong one.:D

Look at the weapons.

Personally I think the dog is the sharpest stick in the box.

Not sure how they got this to work. The scope looks correct in the mount but the mount is backwards.

Probably laying in a pile and somebody just "stuck" it on the weapon. Just because it fits, doesn't mean it's right. :rolleyes: Reminds me of the Secret Service Agent photographed shortly after 911 with his optic on backwards too.

Simple.

It can go on one of two ways, thanks to what appears to be a LaRue mount.

They put it on backwards. Note the illumination control and the eyepiece on the front portion of the scope.

Both pictures stare at you and say:
"I'm so wrong, it hurts"

I would think that in the HK catalog case, someone would've caught that before print.

Nah....print it.

Funny how you can still find those in a few gun stores that don't have as much traffic or sales. We even had one in NoVa and I used to laugh at how long it takes people.

Sad thing is seeing it in action on the firing line as a safety. Even sadder is the guy that drops the mag and corrects the misfeed and places it back in the mag the same way becuase the others are that way.

Life is hard; it's harder if you're stupid.

Many corporations take the 'Microsoft' approach...

Ship then test.
