We are down right open minded about restorations
I posted on a winchester forum about an old 1873 from 1882 that I picked up for next to nothing thinking about getting it restored.
The gun has no finish, an incorrect stock and buttplate, pitting in the barrel, and is missing part of it's sight.
There is absolutely no collector value here and the gun was ridiculously cheap.
I picked it up as a project to restore. You would think I suggested sending a mint 1886 50-105 to turnbull to fancy up.
I know not all on here are pro restoration, but there is no reason to let this gun languish as it is.
