Honestly, I think Jim is right regarding the cost to salvage that 0 frame vs just buying an 0 frame 16 as a donor. The pitting was so severe on the right side of the 28, it would require countless hours of welding, flat filing, repeated times, before you get to the point of re engraving even the simple V grade borders, let alone the name, re-milling the screw pockets, and hope there is no distortion. It's only my opinion, but I think a gunsmith would agree, the estimate of $500 would be eaten up very quickly.
