KY,

I agree. Seems like some actually pass on very rare guns because of small flaws. I look for reasons TO buy a gun, not reasons not to. If the gun is 1 of 50 ever made, and is in excellent condition and one that I admire, can shoot well, or fits my collection, I'll have a forearm made to historically correct detail so I can own that piece of history and restore the gun to its proper glory. It may be the only one I see in my lifetime.
