I guess if you have that kind of money to burn tossing the warranty out the window means nothing.

I ashamedly have to admit... those were some pretty bada$$ cars coming out of those shops.
Sounds like me picking up a near NIB 1991 vintage 10/22 with fancy maple stock, and before shooting it sendign the trigger out for work, the bolt out (headspace, polish, extractor/ejector work, pin firing pin), and hte barrel out (set back a hair and recut chamber to match tolerances) before even shooting the darn thing.

Except the difference is in the fact that the mods I'm having done will make it an excellent shooter
