Why is the barrel so messed up?

The rest of the gun is in almost unformed condition and yet the barrel looks like this I understand it’s not chrome lined cause it’s a 1951 but Danm

Another question is it even safe to shoot

The wood and even the finish are in amazing condition it’s numbers matching and was refinished

The damage doesn’t look that severe but the mechanic said it’s gonna be 6500 due to bent axel housing and other stuff and that’s without the body work which if I did it myself I wouldn’t bother as i can live with scratches

I think they just gave me an outrageous quote and I could definitely fix it myself for cheaper however if I went through insurance it would be 2k I get it done by a professional the body work gets done and they will give me all new break pads and rotors and new tires. Either way I’m spending 2k but if I go through insurance I’m wondering is it worth it for my rates to go up probably by a lot as I’m 22 and this is my first wreck

The picture doesnt look that bad but the steering and rear tire are all messed up

I hydroplaned right into the concrete barricade
The damage is pretty minor however the alignment is all off so it’s probably something bent and I’m 22 so idk how much my rates would go up and my deductible is 2k so I’m unsure idc about the cosmetics a whole lot the rim is pretty messed up aswell.

Just a total bad luck incident as I wasn’t speeding or anything
