Re: Grading Lugers & Other Things
It may not matter to the shooter that the Holland & Holland has been reblued and the stock replaced, but it sure devalues the piece in the eyes of the collector. The extreme case would be the axe which George Washington used to chop down the cherry tree. Said axe is owned by a friend of mine, though the head has ben replaced twice and the handle three times.
