If you note the chip out of the center of the track that is the first sign it is bad. Secondly, the badge is smaller than a real Assman. Third, look at the hinge from the side. You should see a ledge. I bought one of these from Chuck Warrainer (sp) and discovered it was fake and got my money back. I did a thread on these way back then and you should be able to find it.

It is also made out of a heavier material.
