Everything you say is true, and I feel the same way. If you do a nice refinish, maybe a trigger/action job by a competent gunsmith, and treat her to a new set of grips...that pretty gun will still have all those stories under her belt. The only thing better is if you then returned it to the officer as a gift.
Me and a buddy have two old M10's at a gunsmith getting the full boat. Cut to 3" & crowned, gold beads, trigger/action, bluing, case color hardening parts, chamfered and so forth. Spending more than I'll admit here since I was laughed at in an old thread. I'm excited like a little kid though and nothing wrong with supporting your local 'Smith! Tomorrow is Small Business Saturday: Drop something of at your gunsmith.
