Does it need the wood refinished and the barrels reblued, or just a good cleaning.
The following is just off the top of my head.
Rebluing could run $300 or $400 or more depending on how much metal polishing it needs and who you get to do the work - name guy vs. local guy for instance. Refinishing the wood could run, I don't know, $200 way on up and more if there is checkering to be recut.
If you're just talking a good cleaning and replacing some parts it should be much more reasonable...if you can find the parts.
Got any pics?
