Hi Ron

Yes, I see a small flange too, my point was that pictures can be so misleading and even the slightest movement can make things appear bad. We see the same thing on the last picture showing the crown/M's, if this had been the only picture provided what would we think?

The last few pictures even though very nice still do not resolve our friendly dispute. The pitting on the barrel looks blued in to me and of course you could counter that they are not

The lack of machine swirls in both ears is not a good sign, we know they should be there.

On the bright side I see some small amount of barrel ware that could not be seen before.

This one is tough. I am afraid I still think its been refinished. The sad thing is we may never know for sure

I want to thank Brendan, Albert, Dwight, Jerry and you of course for putting up with my point and counter point, it can get a bit tedious
