I can understand your frustration.
What gets me is the moment a guy offers up what can be considered helpful advice turns into a debate about the shade of a color... You simply can't win. I avoid these types of discussions because everybody is a self proclaimed expert and some really are and some are not.
Ultimately it's your decision it's your model and looks wonderful just the way it is. I like the anti-glare hood it's the most commonly seen configuration. I still can't find a photo without it out of 10 books. Jonathan has several of my books used in the research of this model and maybe it was gospel maybe it wasn't. I don't have an issue with it. I would just add it if I had a set that I do not. With that said I have nothing to add it's not my fight.
Key and other brass models are just as prone to this as anything else. The medium used brass it plastic is irrelevant the research is the same.
I hope you stay on OGR; I've been put through the ringer here on all sides of the fence and still come back because there are a lot of young folks out there that need to see what's out there. Education is important to me and authenticity goes hand in hand with history.
