Some guns that are REALLY in bad shape really are more costly and more time consuming to get them in order than to buy a good shooter and fix it up. If I get a gun in really bad shape, there are extra charges for metal prep, parts, and even then you are not guarentted because of frame wear and other unseen items, like breech blocks not being able to retain the firing pin retainer pin as well, or perhaps a oncoming failure. Once you get inside these you find that some of them are more trouble than they are worth. I just relayed this same info to John Sabato. Get a nice, but finish sad shooter, every body involved in the rework will be happier.
