Question What should I do with my Parker

I have recently acquired a model V, made in 1901. It is 12 ga. 30 in. barrels, hammerless, and in original condition. Does not appear to have ever had anything done to it. Gun is very tight, bores look good, no pitting, but there is some surface rust on the trigger guard and the exterior of the barrels. Main problem is that the triggers are "locked up". They will not move.

What can I do myself to loosen the action up, or should I leave well enough alone and send it to a gunsmith that is familiar with Parkers?

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
