If any gun is restored properly, you should NOT be able to tell it has been restored.....
I totally agree, and
especially if the gun has been used after the restoration and shows some normal handling wear. Many "experts" have been fooled by guns like this.

Yes Stan my opinion as well, that is pretty much what the British and Europeans have always done.....they freshen up their guns every so often without adding "glitz or sequins"......then continue using them as they have always done.......makes sense to me........
BTW---PM reply to your PM question posted Stan.......
Best,
