No Edgar it doesn’t add a penny to it’s value however, the very well done aftermarket ejector ststem is part of the gun’s history, regardless of what a research letter may or may not say… and regardless of where it was done.
Me…?… I’d leave it just the way it is.

Im guessing you might not have been at Hausmann's that year, or at least weren't with Deb when she was "shooting" the gun. I say this, because the ejector system, maybe good on paper, wasn't working. I remember Larry being pretty annoyed (for the lack of a more colorful term) And, so what if it's part of it's history. Not all history proves to be good history. It's most important history is how it left the factory.

No I don’t think I’ve ever seen it in use, just handled and hefted it a number of times in his gun room/vault. A beautiful gun!!!
