Good question...
I'm enough in love with at least one of my franken rep to stay with it, and not buy the gen.
But it is a frankenised one.
I can't stay with a standard rep.
There are two ways to live with reps, for any reason whatsoever...
90% of rep owners: They can happilly live with their rep, without even thinking about improving it.
And us: Kind of crazy guys who discovered a Hobby:
Chasing the best 1.1 rep, gen dials, bezels, crowns, hands, drill lugs, mod CG's... Everything...
That's called fun.
I own gens and one day I'll buy too a gen Apollo 11 speedy.
But untill I get a new passion: I'll stay with my friend Frankestein.
