Frank: Frankly I'm surprised no one has yet offered this service, so let me be the first. I will field test your gun throughout the month of October 2010. If there remains some doubt, I will continue the test throughout November and December. I will return the gun with an opinion on its shootability no later than January 2011. I will save some pheasant meat for you, should it have proven shootable.
Cheers,
Jack
On a more serious note, provided the action is tight, the barrels on face with no deep pitting, dents or bulges, it is quite likely shootable. An examination by a competent gunsmith should be undertaken if you have concerns. Shootability cannot be determined through forum discussion.
