I'm considering buying my first revolver - just a shooter, nothing fancy. Anyways, found a deal on a S&W Model 10 that could be a good deal (negotiations remain to be done), if only some dimwit hadn't carved his initials into the frame just below the cylinder (the seller didn't do the carving). Apparently this was done with "electropencil."
Would you consider buying a gun that had some initials carved into it, or some other means of personalization that was permanent and obviously not yours? If so, how much of a discount would you want, if any? I'm leaning towards purchasing, but only for the right price. Just wondering what other people think about it. Haven't seen this question arise before.
Update: Bought the gun. See post #35 for some pictures
