Good point about the arbor being too short. Try this. Take the barrel off and remove the cylinder. Put the barrel on at about 90 degress to the frame. Push the barrel all the way down then rotate it to the frame. The barrel should fit flush with the frame or close to it. If the barrel goes past the edge of the frame when you put in the wedge it tilts the top of the barrel inward. You can drill and tap a hole in the front of the arbor and put a set screw in it. Adjust it until the barrel just mates with the frame and loctite it in place. Now when you put in the wedge, the barrel can't tip back. Make sure the set screw does not extend into the wedge slot. It's easier than messing with all those shims. I'd get a new wedge too.
