Jack, this is a very controversial practice to put a part on and especially to force match one, I know that it is done, but some people say it is boosting or bolstering a gun.
I feel it is much less "bad" to put on a period part with the same number, then to put on a blank one and put a number onto it.
And, even if something is controversial, you are welcome to discuss it, tooooo controversial, and we'll correct or end the thread. And you can post in any part of the forum, we just try to keep the topic in the "correct" part of the forum, i.e. WW2 guns in WW2, early guns in early, etc.
