The current specs for spreader length are 26.75" shroud groove tip to butt - I was told that this was shortened from the original Alberg design at some point. Can anyone tell me what the old length was? I don't know if mine have been cut down or not, they are a fraction of an inch over the minimum and I can't see that trimming them a bit more would help that much, unless they are stock and it turns out that yes, it will help even though I think it won't.

Thank you.
