I think that the problem of numbering real/replica parts for your own use in your own gun is not the issue as much as what happens to the gun after it leaves your possession. Lets say that you do the renumber thing and get killed in an accident. Then your wife or somebody unknowingly sells that gun as a genuine matching numbered piece. Then the new buyer proudly displays his prize here on this forum where the pros immediately discern that the pistol has been fooled with. They tell him of the problem and he freaks out because he can't get his money back on a fake. Somebody is going to get hurt.
