Broken Double......need some help......

My friends old double got banged up last year when he got splattered by a buffalo. The rifle does have a bit of wear, but after he got run over the rifle doesnt reliably cock. Know I know this isn't a high end H&H, but I think it still would have some value if repaired. It looks to me like grooves that the cocking arm rides in and pulls against in the reciever have been worn/gouged when the rifle was forced open upon impact.

I am looking for someone that could maybe TIG them up and re-cut them???????

Any ideas?









You can see in the pictures the wear.....the areas circled in red are where the damage / wear is.
