Default Need advice on potential restoration

Hello Parkerites! I am new here and new to Parkers. Not too long ago, I picked up a Parker 0 Grade hammer gun. The serial number links to 1884 manufacture. It's a 12 ga. with 32 twist barrels (as mnarked on rib). Everything appears to be there and the serial numbers all match. I bought it as a wall-hanger, but am not convinced it should be used strictly for viewing pleasure. The lock-up is pretty tight, certainly far tighter than most wall-hangers I have owned. The barrels look good inside and out except for a slight dent near the muzzle on the right one. The hammers cock and hold, the triggers let them fall and the firing pins appear to be intact.

My question is, is there someone in Wisconsin who could do an examination and evaluation to clarify wheather this gun can be fired?

Any and all advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
