I would not refinish or modify a collector grade gun unless it was to stop further deterioration.

If you are looking to make a target pistol or a long distance rifle, a new gun will get you much closer, and probably much cheaper than modifying an older gun.

This is my sentiment too. I voted new gun.

I'm torn between the two choices myself. Been wanting to send out a pistol for custom work for a while now but, that new gun smell is amazing. This poll was just for fun and there really is no "role" for the either new or customized gun in question. Just another range toy. For serious duty I would vote new OEM every time.

I did the math on customizing my Browning Hi Power and with that money I could buy two new guns or a really nice higher tier firearm. Still torn.
