Of course he does very nice work yadda yadda yadda .

But to be perfectly honest I'd rather have a gun that's say 30% in honest used but not abused shape over one that's been restored/reconditioned .

I had a friend tell me once about some folks that reconverted flintlocks , he said anytime you did that you were destroying history and I suppose to a Civil War collector that's 100% true . And I kinda view Parker's , Fox's , Smith's and a good many other old quality guns the same way .

But that's my opinion and like a particular body part everyone has ONE !
