Howard, I understand where you are curious, but being a gunsmith yourself, and I imagine, not on purpose after you have worked on them, but do you feel you have "fixed" guns that later were sold as bolstered, boosted etc.?

I ask, because your questioning appears to be pointed at Ted, and he makes an attempt to "mark" his work and I would say a huge majority of gunsmiths and gun restorers make no attempt to mark their work?
