pistol grip to straight

[WilliamGuest]

As mentioned in my first intro post, I currently have a VH 12 gauge and PH on the way to me. I plan on getting the vh restored and having it completed hopefully this spring/summer. Originally this parker had a capped pistol grip, but the original stock is no longer with the gun. I'm wondering if it would take much value off, if I decided to go with a straight grip instead..the original trigger guard is in great shape, serial numbers are hardly wore and the border engraving is still quite crisp. So, would it hurt much if I used a replacement long tang trigger guard and just kept the original for safe keeping?? Or should I just go pistol grip as it was..

Thanks
