@GunnyMack @Rockrat Gentlemen; It is important to remember that the notch in in the barrel, not the tube.

GunnyMack; Thank you for your interest. I have retaken the closeup pictures with a real digital camera. I can assure you that I used the exact fastener that was sent with the adapter, and that the screw was properly torqued.
