Sometimes I see pictures of cues for sale, which seem to have a 3/8 x 10 modified pin, yet they are advertised as a 3/8 x 10 pin. Why is that? Are the cue sellers ignorant?
Here is a picture that shows the difference between the two pins:

To me, it seems pretty easy to identify the difference: one has a pointed nose, the other has a flat nose; one has threads that are cut deeper, the other has a fatter "forearm" and shallower threads; one has threads that appear to be closer together.
