Richard, I don't have another wedge latch to compare. No evidence I can see of a latch removal/replacement. I think the dark spots are just rust and grime.The bases are the same length 1 5/16, and in the same position on the barrels. If you'll be attending the Southern I can bring them along and you can inspect them first hand.
