The slight mark left by factory test and proof firing is usually not visible. If there is a visible drag line, it probably means the gun shop or its customers handled (not necessarily fired) the gun at some point. Does it make any real difference? Not a bit; the gun is still new, with a new gun warranty.
Some folks are anal about buying only new, untouched guns; one even said he would not accept a gun that had been proof fired, as if he could get such a gun.
Most of us live in the real world. Last spring I bought a new car; it had 12 miles on the odometer, so it wasn't "new", but I didn't demand one with 0 mileage.
