So I've been wondering about this a good bit lately: does modifying a flashlight have an impact on its value?
Like, if I have a flashlight that actually has value to begin with and, say, install a McClicky, bore the body, mod the head, etc. will that affect the value it has as time goes on?
What are your thoughts, CPF? Would you spend more for a flashlight that may technically be a collector's item if it was modified (in such a way that enhanced it) than you would if it was in completely factory form?
The thing that prompted me to ask this is because I have some good looking Surefire C2 hosts that I would like to mod, but at the same time, I'd like to keep as much value associated with them as possible. What are your opinions everyone?
