Philosophy Question...

[Pete Ebbink]

Would appreciate folks's comments and opinions :

Similar to the issue of refinishing/touching up lugers, how do folks feel about holster repair work...?

Is it better to leave a holster in it's "as found" condition or have a few repairs made to get it back to its "as-issued" shape ?

I have recently picked up a nice brown German military holster that is very, very nice, but is missing three stitches on each belt loop...along the top row...

Should I have the missing stitches replaced or leave the holster as is...with its inherent history...?

Regards,

Pete... <img border="0" alt="[typing]" title="" src="graemlins/yltype.gif" />
