Is this a genuine O'min cue or some copy?

If anyone could provide me with some guidance as to whether this is a genuine O'min cue or not, that would be appreciated:

All the pucker Omins I have seen have OMIN embossed into the brass joint !!!!! I am no expert but my opinion a bit Iffy

LOL..... Never seen Omin HUSTLER cue before. It's a 100% fake Omin. One of Omin's top range cues would be the HUNTER cue. I do have a Omin HUNTER II. Bought it direct from Omin factory.

Yes all the Omin cues I have seen (I own a genuine 3/4) have the the Omin logo etched into the joint metal, this etching is very deep and well done, on the fakes the etching is very shallow and not of a good standard,this cue has no logo as far as I can see and I may be wrong but I dont think Omin market a two piece cue called the HUSTLER I am not sure but I think Omin may have sold their licence to China so that complicates things even more.the name HUSTLER is very apt.

i have a few of the chinese o'mins they are very good - this is nowhere near that level.
