KDROSS,

The main problem with this gun is the fact of the rebarrel.

I'm certain your search has shown you many guns with new barrels by their maker or others. There is a certain period and certain gunsmiths who are known for making beautiful guns into barrel-heavy redone guns. Others have perfected the process--see, for example, the work done by Atkin, Grant & Lang.

Leaving generalities aside, you will have to look at each gun and decide how it measures up to the standards you've established. From what you describe, this one doesn't pass the smell test.

Personally, if a gun originally had dovetail barrels, a flat back or a through lump, that could be okay by me.
