Bill, getting that lock fixed would be my priority. I can send you some recommendations if you don't know a good sxs gunsmith. You can hopefully fix the current stock and as long as the barrels are sound, start enjoying it.
I like the 45-70 as well and have too much fun with black powder cartridges in both trapdoors and Shiloh sharps rifles.
Shooting black powder shells out of a shotgun is too much fun. That would be fun to get a turkey with this back action.
I am putting on a Parker shoot in Rhode Island on May 24th you should come and bring that Parker!
