Default Wall-hanger or shooter?

A while back I bought an 1874-made Parker Lifter but had it shipped to Turnbull for inspection and a resto-quote. They said it had too deep of pits in the chamber to be safe, and that it was only a wall-hanger.

Aren't those old stub twist bbls thicker than most? If not safe, I have a near complete parts gun that is mechanically excellent.

Opinions please?
