I think we're liking this gun more all the time. I'll stick my nose into the air and guess its weight at 8 pounds, 2 ounces, and the stock drop dimensions at 1 5/8" drop at comb and 1 7/8 drop at heel. I don't know when Pachmayr quit using the Los Angeles 15, California address on their recoil pads, but we've been in zip codes for decades. Very nice gun, deserves to be shot.

Conner,
Yes! Shoot the snot out of that Parker. It should let the smoke out of a clay target, take the head off a turkey, or kill a high flying bird. 60 years ago a gunsmith told me one can put a case of shells a day through a Parker and not hurt it. It will digest 2 3/4" shells with delight. Harry Harry |

I am new to the forum, this is my first post and please excuse if this is not the proper way to ask
But how can I tell what barrel length my Parker Trojan, sen no 161908 came with? It is now 28" |

Or purchase a copy of the serialization book and look up the number to see what it says. Or physical examination of the muzzle of the barrels would tell possibly.

According to the Serialization book #161908 was a 12ga made with 30" barrels.

Jobe,
Yes and No. Yes it is a shame they were cut. On the other hand Trojans were choked Mod and Full for 28" barrels and Full and Full for 30" barrels as I recall. With only 2" removed there likely some choke left. Most barrels were cut because the choke did not match the game pursued. It should make a handy small game gun. I'm not admonishing you in telling the you the proper way to ask a question on the PGCA Forum. If you have a comment on an existing post "Reply" on it. If you have a new question such as the one on your Trojan. Search the forum topics for the one that applies. Go to it and you will find "New Thread" in the upper left. Kindest, Harry |
