All the guns that were sent to me from/by the factory didn't look any different than off the shelf pieces. I worked for Colt, Win, Valmet, Ruger and walther ------ the above applied to guns sent to me by them. Of the few graded pieces I have recut, there didn't seem to be that much difference other than the polishing of the internal parts. FWIW and INHO, Ken
