Granted, a letter would show F/F but it isn't a 90% gun in anyone's definition anyway.
To a purist it would probably devalue the gun but to the majority of people that would use the gun it would probably be considered beneficial. It would definitely make the gun more useable for you and your applications for it and it's YOUR gun so enjoy it the way you want it.
