Curses, just lost my reply.

Okay, to answer your assumption, the most I've done is replace stocks.

We switched over to M14s for drill (and everything else) not too long ago, but I really prefered the old M1s. I'm into it more as my own little collectible on my wall (or for occassional drilling) than for actual shooting.

My question is what is Parkerizing, and thanks for the link (maybe it's in there...)!

**Edit**

Okay, read about Parkerizing... Doesn't sound too bad. Would chroming the metal after this be 'good' for it? The goal is to get the weapon 'display worthy'.
