Interesting Torgo: You have an uncommon '5 pin' lockplate, and the only other I've seen was also a Regular frame 0 grade. The extra 2-pins line up with the upper front and upper back blind bridle screws. The 3-lower pins are the tumbler axle pin, sear axle pin, and main spring locating pin. The firing pin bushings (which are steel and not brass) were discontinued about 1905, but I have a 06' 16g 2E with bushings. I'd suggest a trip over to Buck Hamlin in Pevely, MO (636-479-4304) to make your neat gun whole again
