And 1 more question, interm of quality finishing or another which generation is the best?
To collectors it's not black and white.
The X-Metal finish is done by blasting the frame with an abrasive compound and maybe a Chemical dip. Not 100% sure about the dip, but possible.
Some prefer Gen.1 because of imperfect casting and darker finish. Some like Gen.4 without a Serial No. and nearly no casting marks and a lighter finish.

Unlike the 1st Generation of Plasma, which is much sought after, has an 'bone' type finish. Which is an almost off-white colour......to be found on both the earliier P###### serial Juliets and the first 9, 999 XP###### serial.
 
Hi all! I just picked these up. All I know is they are in the style of the E wire but I’m not sure if they are authentic, which release they are, ect. Couldn’t find any “Made in USA” marking. I do believe there was a very small bit of green corrosion where the frame and lens meet.

What can you tell me about these? Thanks!
