Ones I just made were in the 3.25 range, no hooks, AYC with the appropriate weight size. I am kind of leaning toward it being a real one myself, but I am far from and expert. I just picked up Jr and tail wrap looks similar with brass belly grommets, dull stainless thru wire, and lip looks right too. Did BM make any this size? They did make the JR's but shape was a tad different and had shinny new age lips.
