Dude, Brian, it’s a joke.
I don’t see why you get all irritable when somebody exercises their right to free speech.
Chill out.

Next is going to come someone who realizes that it’s a joke, but doesn’t realize the irony in writing 3 paragraphs on why they’re pathetic and have no life in response to a sentence that took 10 times less effort to type.
The tire and tennis rings seem like something I’d actually consider buying. The gun seems to bulky to bother with unless it worked, although I guess it’d be a great conversation piece…

The “Stop saying photoshopped people you losers etc etc” people make me laugh.
Don’t feed the trolls, dumbass!
And that tire ring is pretty cool, definitly something I’d consider buying. The tennis ball ring seems it would get too dirty being on the finger, and the teeth ring? Now that’s just weird.

I’m sorry. Am I missing something? Do you get a prise if you are the first to say “Photoshopped”? I guess I missed it.
If these people want to look stupid (although they think they are brilliant for noticing it) I say let them. No skin off My back, I can still enjoy a pic Photoshopped or not.
And I LOVE the gun ring, I would buy it in a second!

The above comment is Photoshopped for sure! I have seen lots of Photoshops in my time and that is one, the angles are all wrong!

Really? I could swear the comment beneath me is Photoshopped. At this moment, the opacity is set to 0%.
I want the gun ring.

Way too many teeth, that’s not a real mouth. And guns don’t come that small. You can see it’s photoshopped by the pixels.

The tennis and the tire rings are so fancy, I would love them so much, the gun would be too heavy to wear, and the teeth … hmmm.. may be wear it on Halloween, too freaky, a teeth neckless would be an extreme craziness haha

Do you get a prize for spelling prize correctly?

The Damiana diamond tension ring is much better. It was co-designed by Brad Pitt. It features an inner and outer ring being held together by diamonds.

love some of the comments.. yes the pistol ring IS steampunk *sigh*
my fav ring has to be the puzzle ring though. There’s a 16 band version

Sorry lars but I have a gun at home much smaller than that and it’s works. It’s a charm for a bracelet. It fires a small length of copper wire. Doesn’t really do any damage but it is a working gun and when purchasing it you must follow the laws of the country you are in. Maybe you should check your facts before shooting your mouth off. (yes the pun was intended)

Ok so…. I’m a jeweler.
And I also did an advanced course in image manipulation.
So I’ll put it quite simply that these are not fakes. And even if they were, all of these pieces are 100% possible to manufacture.
In fact I’m thinking I might make a tire ring myself…. seems a pretty simple task actually.
The only thing here that would take quite a bit of effort is the gun ring due to the intricate design of the piece.
So to all those “FAKES” callers…. piss off back to 4chan, you aren’t wanted here.

The gun ring looks to hold 6 22cal bullets and could possibly work but might break your finger with the recoil. Not sure I would care to find out.
