The JB just seals the guard from water, same as soldering would do. After that, the handle is filled with glue and pinned just as you always do. Most people can't get a guard fitted with no gap but even if the gap isn't visible moisture might still get through it. I look at it this way: if there is no gap that's great and I'll use JB anyway, you just won't get to see any of it ....
