My question is when it comes to Enfield Riflesicon, if a rifle has some non matching parts is that such a bad thing? I have seen guys on other forums that say mis-matched gun = no deal! I know non-matching hurts collector value, but what about the rarity of the gun. Does that come into play with you fellows who have been collectiing for a long time. I'm new at this. An example would be a 1927 Lithgowicon MKIII. The upper wood does not match, the bore has good lands and grooves but is dark and dirty(needs a lot of TLC), The biggie is the bolt dosen't match. Now, is that a deal buster if you can get it at $200.00 or less? interwar gun, and I'm told by others guys that only 3000 were made. I would like some feedback from some of you who haved been collecting the Emfield for more than 4 months like I have.
