Appeal for help - raising a springer from the dead.

That's a heartbreaking story, Gary, and I hope your friend and his wife pull through okay. From what you say they're fighters and will get through this.

As regards the rifle, most things can be rescued and I hope the mission goes to plan. First step will be to strip and clean and assess the damage and see what needs to be done. Would your friend be able to maybe do the strip himself with some guidance or will it need to go to somewhere like Doctor Nick's?

Not sure where your friend is in Spain, but my Dad is in Nerja (south coast just east of Malaga and south of Granada) - quite handy with tools and sure he could help
