Default steel shot in 2 3/4 inch 20 gauge DHE parker reproduction?

I have a 20 gauge 2 3/4" DHE parker reproduction with 26" barrels improved cyl, and modified chokes. Can I shoot remington 20 gauge 2 3/4" 3/4 oz #4 steel through this gun without barrel damage? I am sure this question has been asked many times. I noticed also that the engraving almost appears to be rolled on on the floor plate, but hand engraved in other places. Is this the case on these? It is a nice gun with beautiful wood, SSBP with single trigger. I bought it for I could never afford " a real parker" in this configeration. I did once have it "double" on me, but have shot it many times there after with no problem. Delgrego said if they have sat a long time, or some old oil in them this could happen. I perfer double triggers, but none were available at the time. The case color is curious, not like my VH 12. Any coments on this would be appreciated BW.
