Thanks for everyone's help and information provided so far. I disagree that this gun is far from gone, especially one this rare and unique. Yes it's worn and has been used as it was made to do. Will it look like it did when it left the factory? No. But I have seen others in much worse shape than this brought back to life to be enjoyed again as it was built to do. I have no doubt that this gun can be and will be more than worth the cost to give it life again.
