Cue Info Please Fake or Real??

[Double-Dave]

This look to me like a legit Predator CRM (Carom) cue.
Those come with Radial pin and red veneers.

The shaft is much shorter then the butt in that series.

Im like 80% sure I bought a red veneer sp with radial joint from a reputable source new, like 2011 timeframe. Sorry, cant remember the specifics though.

Do you guys seriously believe there are knockoff predators? I wouldnt have imagined anyone would bother for 200-400$ cues.

Fake predator cues? Really? Does anyone have a picture of a verified fake? I have never seen or heard of a fake Predator. (Obviously the one in this thread is genuine)

Radial brass? That looks so shoddy?

I've seen a couple predators with radial pin. Not sure if they were converted or not. Cue looks legit though. I would hack that POS uni-loc off too...

No not brass, but then I do not think the pin in the picture is brass.

Yes, there are Predator & Poison knockoff's out there.
A guy with the AZ name tasaddicts was selling fake Predator stuff back in the raffle days.
There was a thread showing the difference in the knockoffs.

Predator cues aren't that expensive, but they aren't cheap, typically over $400.
Since the prices are almost fixed, it makes a lot of sense to knock them off.
