Default Factory ammo in old lemon squeezer?

Hello all! New poster here. I recently aquired an old 3rd model safety hammerless (serial #1026xx) in .38 s&w. Mechanically this revolver is in excellent working order. My question is a matter of opinion. Is it safe to fire factory loaded ammo (magtech .38s&w). I understand the age of such a firearm, and it won't be shot much. I just hate the idea of having a "safe queen." Also any idea of the manufacture date would be helpful.
