should this be my first arisaka?

[Bill Hollinger]

Most defacing of the mum I've seen are so deep that re-stamping wouldn't amount to anything and look rather funky. Gosh, what's next? Re-stamping Argentine Mauser crests or 91/30 markings?

Re-stamping Argentine Mauser crests ...?

I think that faking rolled stamps, i.e. stamps that follow a curved surface, requires a much higher level of skill.

A faker is likely to go for something simpler, like...

...91/30 markings?

I think they are already on the market. (The faked results, not the stamps)
