Pardon me if you are well aware of this, but when you say, “The inner barrels are in good shape!”, I have some concern that you may be looking at shiny-smooth inner barrel walls that may have been aggressively honed to remove superficial corrosion and/or deeper pitting.

Add my voice to those who advise that you have a qualified person measure the minimum barrel wall thickness of that very appealing and high-condition vintage gun before anyone shoots it.
