Totally re-vamping it into a working pistol, de-farbing it, etc., might be a rewarding project; sure, some more money into it, but the end result would be a reliable sparker, and increase it's value. "In for a cent, in for a dollar", they say.That cost to make a mainspring sounds about right, unfortunately in this case. Sounds like you have three choices:
1. Keep the pistol as a wall hanger.
2. Sell the pistol (at a big loss) for parts. (Sounds like the OP could use the butt cap and screw).
3. Spend whatever it takes to get get the lock in good working order, and keep it.
