Wasn't trying to "get you". I was simply using humor to make a point. I agree that anyone can do anything they want to their firearms. It's just that artificial "battle wear" is not interesting. Some of the guys on another forum apply the "battle field pick up" look to the battle rifles they so carefully and lovingly build, but don't shoot them much. I don't get it. If someone wants their firearm to look worn, they should go out and use it, not take steel wool to the finish.
It's been my experience that the battle worn finish on firearms used by pros is actual wear. Not artificially applied to make their arms look "battle worn"
