Anyone know where I might find a used frame or have an idea if the frame could be repaired?

That is odd, do you have any pics? A replacement frame would come in the form of another gun unless you just found a pistol that had undergone some sort of damage to the other components. Parts kits(destroyed pistols) show up all of the time on the auction sites, but they don't include the frame as that is how they are "destroyed". It might be possible to have it welded, I did have some welding done on the muzzle of a project pistol I have with no issues.
