Coosa;
Thanks for the clarification, just wanted to insure I was understanding what you said. Also understand I look at thing from the perspective who spent over 35 years doing precision machining, so it didn't appear to be an overly hard job to Me.
While I did say it was not the most aesthetically pleasing gun I had ever looked at I should have also added it is not by far the worst either, doesn't truly look all that bad. Also as you say you have done no permanent harm to the gun, It can always be put back if desired.
Shoot it & enjoy it.
