Hello, I am new to the board but not to Parkers . I have 5 Parkers ,3 passed down and 2 i have purchased . PH hammer 12, PH hammerless 12, Trojan 12, Trogan 20, and a DH 12. All are well used and original except for the DH , It was used by a local old timer for Quail hunting so it is missing a few inches of the barells!! I took the Trojan 20 out last weekend backing my 7 year old up,he has a Franchi 620vs youth model yellow shells were flying!!

Hi Chris and Welcome!

That looks to be a pretty late Trojan 20. It has the late (1917) style of safety slide-button which Parker didn't use on the Trojans until about all of the pre-1917 style were used up. I can only suspect that it doesn't have the rib extension common to Trojans from 1912 through the very early 1920's. What is the serial number on that one?
