    Stop your belly aching. Unless it was something rare, to each his own. Customizing a firearm is no differant then customizing a car, mc, boat, house, etc. I like it & so do others, or they wouldn`t be bidding on it. It`s one of a kind.

    Wipe your eyes MeatMarket, it was probably a wreck anyway.

    That it was "perfectly good" is an assumption for which we have no evidence whatsoever.
    I have already suggested that it was quite possibly by no means "perfectly good" to start off with.

    Wich brings me to the next point of respectful disagreement:

    So is any wreck.

    Hey Patrick, you took that (IT`S ONE OF A KIND) out of text. What I said sort of was that you can buy a stock 1917 anywhere anytime, but you can`t buy one like that anytime, which is a one of a kind custom gun. I`ve never saw a one of a kind 1917, unless it was a custom sportized (bad word) 1917.
