Blue Snaggletooth Blaster - Are these Repro or Original?

[Howard]

I have 5 blasters that I am fairly certain are the correct weapon for Blue snag. But I don't have a good knowledge of repro weaponary, I have float tested them and the two on the left floated, the three on the right sank (I don't know if the float test is conclusive for this weapon type though)

Any help would be appreciated.

P.S. For those who know me I recently tried to sell my collection but upon consideration I am going to hold on to it for a while, but I would like to sort through the weapons/accessories now and find out which are original or not so that I can try and find original weapons/accessories for the whole of my loose collection

Firstly, the grey one is repro as they never made a grey version of this weapon

The next thing to do is to put them in a glass of water and see if they sink - any that do sink will be repro too

The Snaggletooth came with the blue/black version of the smugglers blaster

That big fat one is a faker.

drop the grey (fake) one on a table compare the sound to the others.
You'll find all the sinkers sound the same.
