I think you are panicking needlessly. Shoot a couple of boxes of hot, jacketed round through it, give it a good cleaning, then see how it looks.
I dunno allow me to clarify better...these pics are highlighted to show the areas. That is not lead on the edges of the lands, that is steel that was essentially pushed rather than cut away.

Looking DOWN the bore, see these black areas? Those are in the grooves. As in, they are higher than the grooves.

Judging by the ridiculous a mount of lead from the probably 5 shots they put through it at the factory, it likely doesnt shoot so nice....
