Gerald, that is a very attractive CH Parker. Do you have a means of measuring the barrel wall thickness in the dinged areas of the barrel? These measurements would be a starting point for evaluating the viability of the barrel and the necessity for tubes or sleeving. A larger number might not insure the ability to use the barrel safely, but a low enough thickness value or an apparent defect in a weld seam would send a red flag that new tubes would be needed. The tricky part is getting a mic with a fine enough point to go down into the "pits". Even if barrel work is required, it will still be a fine gun.
