That's fine as long as it had been fired before your ownership.
I had a Parker that I believe had never been fired and as long as I owned it it never was. I believe the new owner will never fire it either.
There are damn few Parkers we can hold up as 'benchmark' guns and for posterity's sake they should remain so....IMHO.
