I just recently purchased an Imperial loading tool and upon inspecting the marking on the tool is doesn't quite match up to the one on my luger. The "D" appears to be correct, but the crown doesn't have the same exact features as far as lines going through the crown compared to the one on my luger. Rather than that eveything looks to be correct... ie the finish (slightly pitted with 30%? finish) and quality. Fakes are becoming so common its hard to tell real from fake.

I know pictures always help, but I couldn't get good quality pics that would be of any service to your opinions. Your input is appriciated....thanks!
