   The lack of honest "patina" on raw wood or wood that has been 'refinished' to me is ugly. I have passed on really gorgeous 98 mausers and some SMLE's over my lifetime that had simply stunning original finish and bore that had their original wood "cleaned/refinshed , or replaced with raw NOS furniture. I'm just a little anal like that.
