Nope those are the real deal with covers to protect the scope and forestock. I've been in the Canadian Armed Forces for 32 years and I've only seen the "fake" version once! It was being used for a battle fitness test (13km march with rucksack, helmet, webbing and weapon) It weighs the same as the real one and it was being thrown at me by a "friend" which kind of freaked me out till it bounced, then I went WTH !!!
