@smd4,
Yes, everything is your prerogative when it comes to your gun. I am sorry if I offended you.
I have just seen so many C&B pistols on GB where the sellers have no clue as to what they have, and the buyers have no clue, either. And, when it comes to defarbed pistols, they can't even see where the Italian proof marks have been "erased".
Again, I don't want to offend you in what ever endeavor you pursue.
Apologies,
Jim
