Like Wade said, a Pin Mic is for checking the external size or wall thickness. To be accurately checked they would need to be dissambled, and rolled on a Granite Surface Plate to look for any bends.

Best Regards

My crash was last June/end of May, but it looks like all the pics of my stuff has the same date stamp.

It's possible that those aren't my old forks. The lowers do seem darker than I remember.
It is a little coincidental that the rest of the Falco parts being listed are off my old bike and these had Traxxion stickers on them as well though.

I hope they aren't my old ones and that you did get a good deal on a set of good forks.
