A large batch has been produced in Europe a few years ago. I guess they start to make their way into the USA by now.

A quick ID method is to add up the individual numbers of the serial number: If they add up to 17, it's more than likely to be a reproduction. Another giveaway is the splattered pattern of rust spots on most of them. Artificially created to age them.

Other than that, they are good reproductions (if bought at a repro price, at least).
