I'll second this sentiment. I can't think of a sewing machine ever being owned in my family but my grandfather had a fine AH Fox side by side shotgun 1920's vintage. The blueing off the barrel was wore off, stock had checks, and ejectors didn't work, the product of many years out hunting with the dogs for mostly quail. My father thought it would be a fine thing to have the gun restored to like new condition and this was done but it was hardly the same gun in my opinion. Something was missing and he never should have fooled with it. The gun and the quail are both gone now.
