I looked at it at last year's show and measured it against my Test Eagles. I agree with Bob that the gun looks like it never had a crest. The chamber area did not look ground, but as I recall it measured .002 to .004 smaller in diameter than mine. I measured at the front of the receiver, half-way back and across the recoil lug. I don't know if that is enough to remove a crest or not. I wrote the measurements down in a little notebook, but I don't know where it is right now. If I find it, I will let you know the measurements.
