Pac bay Minima guides - one piece or two

I know they are all metal, but are the Minima guides one piece like the recoils or do they have a separate metal ring glued in?

The ring is swaged in. No glue.

What about the new titanium micro / fly and titanium high frame guides? Are they double swaged?

Thanks.
And is it safe to say that they're lighter than the Minima 4's since they're solid titanium compared to the ss? I don't see a weight chart for the 4's.
