I fear you may be correct in this regard. I am astonished in how people think that firearms would remain the same like those of their grandpappy's shotty or 30.06 rifle.
Years ago a good friend of mine got a bunch of his granddads shotguns and rifles, the stock on one shotgun was in pretty rough shape, so he bought a synthetic stock with pistol grip and kinda just tricked it out in a fun way, and his family flipped their shit and asked way he made it so deadly etc., it was quite the treat to witness as we both laughed at their ignorant asses.

Indeed, such a shame.
