Thanks, that's what the seller said but there's very little if any blank space at the end of the barrels.

Does this look right or does it look like it was cut off by maybe an 1/8 inch?

A Trojan, being the most inexpensively made Parker, weren’t always finished as uniformly as the higher grades. Case in point, yours doesn’t even have the perpendicular termination line across the end of the rib found on most other Parkers.
