I think these melt jobs as they are called are awesome. If the owner has the skills... go for it. It is a lot like customizing a car.
Sure it's resale value is changed. For example... say a stock '71 Chevy Nova to a hopped up hot Rod. The probable buying population goes way down. But those who will buy will pay and pay well. So it doesn't really diminish the resale value. It diminishes the # of possible buyers, assuming the job is done well. Besides.. he isn't doing this for resale. He is doing it as a project to enjoy and make a more functional firearm for himself.
But my opinion on these matters is pretty strong. The ops gun..he gets to do with as he chooses.
