Default Coach gun

I was gifted a Parker 12 ga coach gun dated to 1901. Good condition considering its age. Very nice figured wood in the butt stock with exceptional checkering on one side with some damage on the other. Someone with little or no skill attempted to recut the damage. The action is nice and tight and locks up smoothly.

Now the really bad news. Someone in the past has neutered the firing mechanism. No firing pins for sure and I don't know what other parts are missing. My question, is it possible to find parts to restore this fine old Parker, if so who can do the work. It can always be an interesting wall hanger if nothing else but would prefer to breath new life into the old boy.

Opinions on its current condition value would also help

Thanks in advance for any and all info.

Bill
