I actually don't think period customization is a deal-breaker on collectability - I once played with a Police Positive with a 1930s era King conversion vent rib barrel and I'd have bought it in a heartbeat!
I actually like some older pieces that have had skillful conversions done. I have no doubt that if dad was here he would tell me that the Commander is now mine and to do what I want to it. Dad had no trouble converting his guns. He sent that little Officers Model down to Kings to have work done on it.
