Thanks, Wayne. Also, thanks for your lead to Brian Dudley. I've been in touch with him and he has seen photos, etc. He is able to supply the missing screws and is willing to help with internal cleaning of the action parts. After seeing the left barrel photo he agrees this is not a shooter--at least not with these barrels. I wish we had found better barrels, but there you have it.
Thank you for the help, Brian!
In other news, the extractor finally came free yesterday evening. No damage. Just temporarily seized by some bright rust, so that's excellent news. Once free, the rust easily came off the extractor shaft and the bore that it slides in. The barrels and receiver then locked up real nicely.
