Thanks Kutter! The file test proved that it will cut. Good idea about the belt grinder I got alot of metal to whittle down.
The fit on this gun is really bad. It is also off face and real loose so I will need to address those issues while I got the files out. I am going to weld the hook and hand fit the barrels to the action. Will a MIG welder work for this or does it have to be a TIG welder with nickel rod?
The stock is junk, at some point someone scabbed on a stock starting about mid wrist section. The in letting around the tang is WIDE...like you can see between the tang and the wood to the floor. New stock needed

This is a good father/son project, when it is done my son will have himself a double that we did together.
