Default Is my Parker safe to shoot?

I am the owner of a Parker Bros 12 gauge, double barrel shotgun. The serial number is 201435 and is marked VH (Vulcan Steel). The insides of the barrels are clean and shiny. Both firing pins work.

The gun was purchased new by my grandfather who handed it down to my dad who handed it down to me. I used to hunt with it when I was a teenager (mid to late 60s) but I don’t think it has been fired since then.

How can I determine if this gun is safe to shoot?

Jim
