Jerry, As far as boosting goes. If 20 years from now, someone can't tell the difference from an original. What difference will it make? The only time it would make a difference, is if someone DOES know the difference, and tries to pass it off as original. In others words, if ya can't tell don't worry about it!! It's all relative.
There's a guy here in Oregon. Who is a Master Gunsmith and machinist. He specializes in restoring Winchesters and Colts. If you ever go to the Cody Museum. You will see some of his work. Purchased by the curator, as originals. The only people who know they are'nt,are the guy who did the work, and the seller.
