Restoration worth the price?

Thank you Ron and John. This is some pretty interesting reading. I'll have to make copies of these rulings for my note book.

Something that I found interesting is the part about Ideal grips and stock/holster. I didn't know that they can only be on American Eagles of 1900, 1902 and 1906 vintages. I thought that they could be on those vinages even though they were not American Eagles. If I read the rules right, you cannot even replace the leather, if the old leather is all worn out and torn. The wood grips and the metal backing must also be original.
