IMHO, completely ruined it.
I just saw two at a LFGS that had the rear sight dovetails milled off. The consignor did a great job of milling off the dovetails and putting on a scope, but no thanks. Not worth much to me.
That certainly proves that it can be nicely-done. I had not seen that before - I wish I hadn't seen it at all. :)
Someone may have filled any holes later. I've got a few Carbines with holes from scopes. One has the 4 holes in the left side of the receiver. Another has a screw in the top of the barrel. Another has a screw in the very front left side of the receiver into the barrel threads.
