Look through the threads to read the story Bill Murphy put together on the long search for the original Bernard barrels for a gun he had. That length of time would have exceeded my patience level, but it's proof that guns such as yours can eventually be made right. A C grade hammer gun is a rarity and well worth the time and effort of waiting. A grade 2 gun with a good set of barrels, used as a donor, would be one way of getting it back together. The receiver and butt stock look like it's in quite nice condition. You were wise to get it, and hang on to it.
