In my opinion, the buttstock on your GH is not original. Certain things like the shape of the grip, cheek panels and comb are hints to this. Also, the butt does not look to have enough curve to it for an original unaltered Dogs Head Buttplate. One thing is for sure... the checkering on the wrist is no where near correct for the grade or any Parker for that matter.
I would not recommend just shooting the barrels with modern over the counter shells without getting the wall thickness and bores checked out. Chances are there are no issues with them, but the only way to know for sure is to have them checked out with the proper equipment.
I can also say that your barrels have been blued at one time long ago.
