Welcome Mr. Keacher. My very best duck gun is a 32" F/F 1883 gun like yours. 33548. It has stout bbls and will handle stout loads and kills ducks at scary ranges. Mine has been restored. The bbls were pitted and have been lightly honed and there's still a lot of wall thickness. You'll want to pull the locking mechanisms to make sure the sears are good and all the screws are tight, which is very unlikely. If the locks need work Al Edge of Old Dominion Firearms is a magician with micro welding. He returned my sears to new condition for a very reasonable price. Get her all fixed up and I assure you you'll have some good shooting.
