        I doubt he actually took it apart. This picture has been on the web for a while now. See

            Beats me, its the first time I've seen it. I'm just passing along what was sent to me. I too believe its a 'rulycon', but the pic isn't clear enough that I can tell.

            I don't really care about fakes all that much. Mine are genuine, and thats all that matters to me.....just found this one humorous (but not shocking with today's cheesy shit).

              You know, I thought I'd seen that picture before... possibly even on here. The earliest postings I see of it date back to 2007.

              I wonder if it was a staged pic for a laugh? It was at the height of the "fake cap" era.

                        Well congratulations!

                        I think we established that the pic was old about 9 posts ago.
