Looks pretty good to me Dave. I'd have the locks out to inspect/clean/lube them. Doesn't look like it's been apart a lot and the locks still fit into the receiver tightly. If the internals are in good shape you can just soak the lock assemblies clean, tighten up any loose screws and lube them up and put them back in. Is that oil staining on and behind the wrist? I'd pull the firing pins also as they seem to get really rusty if the gun hasn't been apart in 90 yrs, as seems to be the case with most of them. You'll like the fishtail lever so you can open the gun when the right hammer is back.
