I got a bit burned on an auction, got a 1912 No 1 Mk III barreled receiver with a lot of bits with it. It arrived and I discovered why I only paid $12 + shipping for it, the receiver is bent and slightly twisted. The upside is that all the other bits on it are still worth what I paid in parts value, so no big deal. The big question I have is with the barrel. The bore is really nice, and I took a straight-edge to the barrel, scrutinized it for a long time and it appears to be straight. So, would you guys salvage the barrel or not? I am not sure if I want to, but I hate to just scrap the barrel if there is any hope of using it down the road.
