Get the gun to someone who knows what they are doing before you do harm.

And as an fyi, the checkering on your gun has been previously incorrectly recut. Or incorrectly cut completely. With the gun being a base grade gun, it may have not had any checkering to start with.

I already took it to Cole Fine Guns and Gunsmithing. They solely specialize in high end shotguns that cost tens of thousands of dollars...and both gunsmiths (Remember, they only work on shotguns) there didn't want to try to disassemble because they were unsure how and didn't want to risk damage. Now if the guys who only specialize in shotguns can't figure it out, whats another gunsmith going to do? All the other gunsmiths in the area seem to work more with modern firearms. Cole recommended Turnbull Restoration Co. but if the shotgun is a base grade like you said, why would I spend thousands of dollars for something that isn't worth much?
