If you have any doubts about it, It would be prudent to take it to a qualified Gunsmith, for inspection and test firing.
We have no way to ascertain it's condition and/or if it's safe to fire from cyberspace.

Modern 6.35 ammo is less potent now than it was when the Ortgies was made. If the weapon is sound, fire away.
Cruelty was a rare thing in the war. Fireside folks who talk about war and read about it, they figure it's cruel more often than not, but it simply isn't so... You kill in war to survive, and not because of any desire to kill.
Many men avoid battle not from cowardice but from fear of cowardice, fear that when the moment of truth comes they will not have the courage to face up to it. L'Amour0 -
