The top blue one makes kind of a "tinny" sound, if that makes sense. It bounces a bit. (it also sinks).
The black one makes a solid sound and pretty much hits the table flat without much of a bounce (this one floats). It's just the odd little tab of plastic on the blaster grip that has me wondering if it's legit. Most tests say yes but I don't see any in the reference guide with that little tab.

Shawn made this a while back as a way to easier describe the sounds, as it's hard to do in text lol
Just passing it on - by no means is the sink test 100% as we seem to find out each time a weapon is tested but the drop test has always w worked for me.

Here are the best pics I could get of the black one.
Hope these are clear enough. Like I said - it passes the drop test and the sink test. You mentioned the mold tag - is that usually a sign of real weapons? That was what had me wondering if it is a fake.

There is no original that has the "horizontal line" go through the whole blaster

Yep as far as I know that is correct. But I think the pictures are mixed up & there is no picture of the other side of the black one to double check it's authenticity.

Yeah, that's my fault. The close up is of the fake blue tint one. I'll get better pics up of the black one that's still in question.
