No disagreement on their blatant lack of proof. My only point is that that unfortunately doesn't mean that we can absolutely disprove all of their claims. Perhaps we can regarding the Naked Runner screen-use claim - that would just be a matter of showing that every appearance throughout the film is inconsistent with this gun. But as long as we can't state for an absolute fact that the gun cannot possibly have been dressed as a DL-44 and on the ANH set, RIA seems to be left with an out (at least by the depressingly-low standard that auction houses are apparently held to in this market).Having a gun in inventory is no proof of being used or even available for the production. They have offered NO public proof of this and I would be amazed if any photo they could have could possibly show it. They would literarily need to have a photo of BOTH blasters together on set that show the PS SN to prove the PS is 1 of 2.
Just a minor check - why would a hypothetical photo need to show multiple blasters together? Wouldn't a solitary shot of the PS gun be sufficient so long as the gun was dressed, the gun was unmistakably identifiable, and the background was identifiable as the ANH set?
[Edit: I notice you're referencing 1 of 2... has the claim changed from 1 of 3?]
