Great question! I have a 20 GA with Turnbull Colors. It is in almost new condition in every way so it was not an effort to restore a worn gun. Makes gun look much better and more original. Next step will be to have Brian Dudley add the proper borders.
I do not believe these modifications will either add or take away from the value of the gun.

If two otherwise identical guns were offered up for sale, the one with real case hardening would sell first. As Bob said, above, having the borders mullered, and I would add, the synthetic finish replaced with a nice oil finish, The gun will be far more attractive to me.
