Jim, I wouldn't take the barrels to just any gunsmith for restoration. There's a small handful of expert Damascus restorers in the country. Most likely, a "regular" gunsmith will just ship the barrels to one of them and then add a middle man charge to the cost. Or worse yet, he may try to restore the Damascus himself and make a mess of it. Brad Bacheldor is a member here and very accomplished at damascus restoration.
