You don't have to explain. I wasn't looking at those laser barrels when I posted that lastnight! I was tired,and not thinking clearly. That was my mistake! 
It's obvious. I see that now. It's as clear as a bell. I just wonder why most of these have the yellow stripes on the barrels,but Red 5 has blue candy striped ribbons on its' laser canon barrels. Was this because Red 5 was the hero of the movie,and they wanted to show that? Maybe it's so that it you can tell the difference between it,and the other fighters while on screen. That's what I meant when I was talking about the yellow stripes. Red 6 doesn't have them either. The only other model that has them is the four foot Red 3 model from Return of the Jedi. I wonder what the stripes were originally supposed to suggest,or if they were strictly for a sense of realism.....
