Can't see detail, but yes - the barrel has been off the pistol.
Take your pictures using a digital camera on a tripod. Set it for closeups and don't use flash. Take them outdoors in shaded, indirect sunlight.
Sometimes the shiny nature of metal fools the autofocus of cameras, so you end up trying several times before getting a good exposure that is sharp and detailed.
