The suspense was taking its toll on me. I left work and raced 45 minutes each way to take some pitures at a pre arranged spot.

It looks better than I remembered but they still might be replacement barrels, maybe somebody way more qualified than me can throw in their opinion. Most of what looked like gaps turned out to be poor photo shading. There are small cracks though behind the sideplates.

This thing is a wand in the hands.
