Scott, it looks to be a nice Parker hammergun. The barrels are the biggest concern on these old guns. Are the barrels pitted, do the barrels lock up tight on the receiver if you twist them with the forarm both on and off? Take the barrels off, balance the barrels on your finger at the barrel lug and strike each barrel along it's entire length with a non maring object like a plastic hammer or wooden dowel or even your knuckles. The barrels should ring like a bell when struck. If they don't it could be loose ribs.

We could tell you more if you post the serial number found on the side of the barrel lug or the receiver water table. Do the serial numbers match on the receiver, barrels, and forearm?

Let us know.
