Curious, what makes you think they're new, reusing old patterns? It says that it's "kopp collectible", and sold as-is, no returns.. to me, it sounds like old stock..

Good catch, I assumed that was the case, looking over it again, looks like this is all NoS

I'm a little disappointed that Kopp is so bad at photographing lenses... :sad:

Too bad they don't have any chinese arrows.

What is a half lens for? :scratch:

I came across a box of NoS a few years ago of them... kept a few for myself and the rest are now with members here!

The red/green one? I would guess Airport usage due to the item # starting with AP

Railroads - assuming you're not meaning the Red/Green one. Used in certain signals for better visibility for the engineer when he's up rather close to a signal and the fresnel would otherwise make the indication difficult to see.

I have one of the arrow lenses that I acquired years back from somewhere....do many of you paint it like you would a command lense or do you just leave it as it is with no black paint to define it? In other words, you paint the arrow or the surround area? [I always mess up my wording :rob: ]
A cop pulled me over and said, "Papers..." So I replied, "Scissors! I win!" and drove off.
