Well, it is not a functioning firearm now. So, if you want a usable gun, you only have one choice.
Just please protect your investment make sure that any work done is done properly.
If the bores are good and the barrels sound, that gun could be made to look like new if that is what you are going for and if you want to sink that kind of money into it. Or, do what it NEEDS and have a functioning shooter.
Just a note about your gun. It is a relatively early GH grade. But it has VH (vulcan) barrels. Given that the barrels are serialized to the frame and also have the post-1910 bolt bite, it is a good assumption that the gun was rebarreled by Parker after 1910. The gun would have originally been Damascus.
