    Rick, dont let my post sound like its a boat anchor. Its beat but not dead, i definitely want to restore it to some degree. First things first, I gotta combat some of the rust before it becomes worse (most of the external rust seems to be from the Florida climate.) Im gonna try cleaning the barrel with bore foam to see if it helps the bore. In the mean time, ill keep my ear to the ground for a new used barrel (with at least the sight base for transfer). As for the stock, I may replace it eventually since its roughest of all and has no proof marks left (wouldnt mind a c-stock set, for a reasonable price). Heres some pics like i promised earlier.

    If it would be helpful I can post some pictures of my 1919 NM - in slightly better condition.
