No part of the plastic is thicker than, I would guess, 0.050", so there's nothing encapsulated.
The stiffening ribs would prevent having a lump of metal inside, that might have fallen out.
I've only seen a couple of them but I'll keep an eye out for one that I can open and photograph. Good shot for the closeups thread.
BWAAAHAAAHAAA Bruce, you got HOSED!!! They saw you coming a mile away.:p

Yes, but your sympathy and compassion is the lubricant, that makes my rape bearable. :p
