I think keeping the original stock helps, but depending on how valuable the particular gun is it’s maybe not be so simple to just put the original back on. I for one, would not even hazard the thought of trying to remove a restock on an A1, then put the original on. So many opportunities for the slip of a screwdriver or the slip of a hand to put you out thousands.

That’s an extreme example, but illustrates the point. You might need to pay someone to change it out, and your going to want someone you trust. It’s not a trip to the LGS

It takes value away in the form of inconvenience. IMHO. I will pay less if I have to do work to get the gun back to its original value state. Even more less if I have to find someone to do it for me.
