Not really. I thought that way in the past too (because relatively older timer Nemo had said so). But later on I found my nake eyes are not very good, probably because I am becoming older and older every year..... 3x-7x loupe is very useful to check any blue on pits, ridges around stamp, rust in the stamp, halo, scratches, muzzle hint of relining, etc. But the precondition is good light source. Gun show seldomly offers good light, actually none of those shows that I went had good light.......... and the air quality inside was poor .....
