Really it is no big deal.
The pristine rifles are not affordable by most of us any longer.
The bubbafied rifles bring a lot less money thanks to changing times.
I can still find a bubba special with a good bore cheap now and then.
I can't afford everything I see. Just like new cars I don't sweat it one bit. That some Marine chopped up a rare Arisaka does not bother me. Think about how many men died because of that war.
