If every tiny thing about a gun's rib matting, checkering, engraving or roll stamping has to be perfect for that gun to be original then there are thousands of true originals out there that "aren't". I've seen many examples of rib matting imperfections, imperfections in the roll stamping, etc., that were on undeniably original guns. The things were built by humans, using machines in some cases, but still operated by human hands. To think that no imperfections ever left the Parker factory is ridiculous.
