Well guys- my local, reputable dealer was 80% convinced it is not authentic- but also stated if it is fake its a darn decent one. And considering the rotational die error could be justification for other errors (maybe) he was 50/50 in thinking I should take the loss and send it in as there is little to no info with the rotated die error on a 31s. (another indicator of a fake) if its to good to be true it... appreciate you guys.
