I saw something either here or in a gun magazine about knock offs like this coming out of the former soviet union, I don't remember if it was Russia or one of the republics.

That's like going to the auto parts store and asking for a "710" cap for a Chevy pickup.       ;D ;D ;D

Are you just picturing every piece of shooting gear written upside down now?

I'm sort of an "outlier" (a very good book to read BTW) when it comes to this stuff.   I started in computers in the mainframe days and spent hours upon hours with EBCDIC and ASCII codes.    So while I don't remember all the codes I do know where to find them.












OKAY you twisted my arm, I'll tell.    The easiest way to cheat is to go to Word (or your favorite word process) and "Insert" a "symbol".    Scroll through them and you'll find most every conceivable juxtaposition of the alphabet you could imagine.  Create the "word" you want then copy/paste it to your posting.  Beats the 64 character, uppercase-only chain printers we used back in the "stone age".
