Monster Dog size difference

I’ve recently noticed that the arms on 2 out of my 12 Monster Dogs have more of a curve/bend to them. You can see in the pictures that there’s a pretty noticeable difference in the length between the end of each earstem. Both pairs with the more significant bend are second gen MDs (CAM hinge with “Monster Dog” imprinted on one arm) It doesn’t appear to be the result of a difference in generation though, as my other second Gen MDs appear normal. Curious if anyone else has noticed this

Could be from different stresses to that specific frame over the years? I’m assuming it’s not brand new?

That was my initial thought. Hoewever, I have a like-new OEM pair that doesn’t have that more pronounced curve.

Both pairs are cerakoted, so my other though was that maybe the curing process affects the arms, but I have other cerakoted pairs that don’t have it

How is cerakote cured? In an oven?
 
They are not. I do have multiple pairs customized in cerakote by the same person, one of which is smaller. The others are normal
 
That there are.

I actually prefer a tighter fit, but the difference doesn’t really bother me. I was just curious if any other MD nuts on here noticed this
