    The coupler is definitely wrong. The counterfeiter evidently didn't have an original to go by.

    Same deal. Tube is good but round is a cobbled fake just like the one in the thread

    I was able to reach my friend that knows the business in question. As I hear it, the business now belongs to the son, who isn't thought to be a vetran either. The original owner isn't a vetran, he is a retired fireman.

    My friend also mentioned that someone should call the guy on the carpet about it, and the fake LAW rocket.

    Already did sent him and e-mail aug 9th prior to starting thread
    see below

    As and avid and knowledgeable ordnance collector it pains me to see such a blatant
    attempt to rip off the unsuspecting buying public
    The law rocket you are selling for $495.00 is a complete fake
    http://www.cdvs.us/66mm-inert-law-rocket-P1301.aspx
    THE ROCKET MOTOR IS THE ONLY THING ORIGINAL
    THE FUZE SECTION IS A PLASTIC ADAPTER TO CONNECT THE
    HEAD OF AN M31 RIFLE GRENADE TO THE MOTOR
    I HAVE PROVIDED YOU A PICTURE OF A REAL 66MM LAW ROCKET
    REGARDS

    his reply

    Thank you for the information.

    Like father like son. My friend was thinking that the son would never get the father paid off when he took over the business.

    I'm not sure who to contact in regards to getting Veterans' organizations to put the heat on him for the "Disabled Combat Vetran" claim.

    Agreed. The local VFW or DAV.

    Thanks to this thread I've been able to add two more names to my list of "Who's who to watch out for."
    One from whats posted and one through a pm generated here.
    I hope my hint on here was also taken.
