Lifter spring, the early V-type

Slide lock release spring

Rear trigger guard screw

Action bar and pump handle. Or just the bar if they can readily be interchanged.

Cosmetics aren't important, as the gun is rough cosmetically.

Dave,

I like these guys for the lifter springs: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Savage-Stevens-Springfield-520-Double-Leg-Carrier-Spring-520-132-/141383836803

and Numrich https://www.gunpartscorp.com/Manufacturers/SavageStevensSpringfieldFox-33479/Shotguns-40503/520-41348.htm for everything else.

I've seen action bars for sale on ebay and Gun Broker, they have to be riveted to the pump handle. You can unscrew the front metal cap to remove the wood and inspect the connection on yours. That's where you will find stress cracking.

I think the action bar is good, no flexing, and the internal parts don't show the wear you'd expect from a well-used gun. Stored poorly, used very little .

Have you figured out why you were having take-down problems, just crud?

The back of the bar is warped.

Yup...that is without a doubt your problem. I bet you could straighten it out under a large press, a trip to a machine shop may be worth a try.

Got home and the tube cracked at some point or another and was brazed back together. You almost can't tell from the inside surface.
