Saxman, A force matched rework is'nt necessarily a parts gun. In my opinion a parts gun is one that somebody slapped together to have or sell a shooter. A rework, is a rebuild. And holds far more interest and value, and has history. Just my opinion.

Adendum: Even Jan Still, considered one of the foremost experts and collectors in the world. Is as equally as facsinated by the history of a piece. As he is by the quality and condition. Just look at his Imperial Lugers book. It's as much a history book as it is a/the, top notch reference for WWI era Lugers. History is half the obsession for alot of collectors. Like Ed and me.
