Condor, I'll opine that a "best work" gun as originally made must/will have quality harmony of the barrels, action, stock, and embellishment. Replacement parts can be made to the original quality level if sufficient money is spent. There are plenty of craftsmen who can make any needed gun part to "best work" standards.
