"Rematching" Parts nNot Ethical
I have long expressed the opinion that substituting parts with falsely matched numbers is unethical and an affront to the serious collector. The primary purpose of this practice is to defraud future purchasers by inflating the value of the firearm. For this reason I believe that the classified section of this forum should not accept ads for parts with particular numbers. While I know this will not end this deceptive practice, it will at least set a moral example for many Luger collectors.
