Default restoring a DH 12.

I have aquired a DH two barrel 12 ga. I have been after this gun for several years and have finally got it. The gun has set in the corner of this gentelmans
living room and has not be fired for ages. After having sometime to look it over
I have found the following;

1. all the serial #'s match, the damascus barrels are different, one is the standared damascus pattern, the second barrel is a twist.
2. the standard barrels have been cut to 20 in. the second set (twist) and no
information as to why.
3. the dolls head on the uncut barrels are bent and the barrels do not come together well.
4.the safety does not function .

the gun is in pretty good condition other wise. I understand that taking the stock off and working on the safety is a night mare. I am also wondering about having the dolls head heated and straighten so it fits better or can the dolls head
of the 20 in barrel and soldered to the other barrel. Who should I send this to.

Pictures will follow.
