🦘Romeo 1 Jordan Information Page - At least 11 differences from a normal R1

I just remembered. Eye jacket lenses were a perfect for R1 MJ frames!
Hello brother, how about using Romeo 1 BI lenses ( i mean cutting the ordinary black iridium R1 lenses because i heard that they are slightly bigger)? Thanks!

It's doable but aren't you scared the iridium might peel off when you remove the tape after CC them? They're pretty old
 
Back to topic for those who have lower SN release, I noticed a small difference in my 0096 vs 7977...

I caught a glimpse while cleaning and noticed the bolt ends at the hinge are flat on the lower SN while tapered for the 7977 and are the same for the rest of my Romeos.

the one in the left is typical remnants due to thread rolling while you compared it to the one with a screw that was ground (maybe it was protruding out and the assembly guy just grind it off - I think screws cannot be a distinguishing factor for differentiation as batches of screws will have several flaws due to how it is being manufactured. I even saw screws without drive (torx/hex) or thread. This opinion though is purely based on what I have experience in assembly and machining technology.
