Comparing two 1936 S/42 guns

I agree that the gun in the picture shows signs of extracarricular buffing.
It doesn't seem to matter how long ago the mod. was made. Once altered the value is significantly lowered. I've bought guns directly from veterans who swore that they had never made an alteration since they have possessed the gun following the war, but the fact remains...
Now if it were me I'd chase that same seller's artillery P 08.
