everyone thanks for your help. Mr. Bob answered all my questions he was a big help! The bad news is it’s a fake. Thanks again

I think your splitting hairs here. And also do not see how you don’t call it a fake.
By definition.

By putting a real one of 1000 serial on it, their was a intent to deceive but very bad attempt.

Good point. I would also think for something to qualify as a “Fantasy Item,” it would have never had existed in the first place. One of One Thousands & One of One Hundreds were original factory items. Now if you made a gun and labeled it “One of One Million” or whatever, that would qualify as a Fantasy Item in my opinion, as it never existed.

Hey Maverick, I was being sarcastic! Of course this gun was made to do nothing but steal some big money from an uninformed sucker.
