For all the trouble and cost you're going to go through anyway, just buy an un-issued MN.

As many of the posters will tell you, part of the "charm" of an old milsurp is the history behind the dings, dents, and scratches. (I don't subscribe to that myself, since I consider most dings, dents, and scratches to be from drunk and sloppy arsenal handling.)
