Could that not be caused by either removing the material from the dolls head only, removing material from the breach face only, or a combination of the two? Thanks in advance.
A set of VH barrels would have light engraving ticks around the breech. They are gone. So at least enough material was removed to eliminate the engraving.

The amount of a gap there is at the back side of the dolls head is an indication of a couple things. That the barrels were set back a lot, or there was some crude filing done in that area. Or both. More than likely the former. When the barrels are set back on the breech, that are opens up some. It is what it is. This amount is a lot. There really is not anything functionally wrong with it. As long as the barrels are on face.
