Very interesting gun indeed. As for overall condition and operation. All the metal has been blued, which is not really a major deal (as long as not hot blue), just not correct finish. Anything mechanical like the one hammer not working can be repaired. How is it not working? Not cocking, not firing, just loose? How tight is the breech? How are the bores?
The stock head and wrist is quite busted up. Hard to tell of it is beyond a functional repair. Might be able to be saved.

The breach is tight. The right hammer will not lock into position and appears that the spring might be broke. The left hammer and corresponding trigger works. I will not be firing the gun more than likely, the right inner bore has some pitting and the left looks good.
