In its current rusty and inoperative condition, I would offer her $250 or so and not feel bad as the gun will require work, and possibly a replacement part or two to become operational again. If you were to pay someone to do the work, it would cost you at least a couple hundred dollars in labor plus any parts. That would be the equivilent of paying $450 to $550 dollars for a non-rusty functional gun that had reasonable finish for its age.
