Default Unique conversation piece !

You fellows that know me a bit know I really enjoy searching out things that are a bit different or unique , and I have a hard time passing on them even if I have no particular use for them at the moment lets just say the thrill is in the chase ! I am always in the search for the VH Grade Parkers with Damascus steel barrels although I have never ran across any of the originals I keep looking and this brings me to the latest item ! I figured we could use a " New Conversation Piece " and I was so thrilled to find this you would have thought I found an A1 ,Special That had been in hiding since new ,although it is not the entire gun but only the Barrels , I think this is so unique ! How many have seen another and if you have the other half of " MY GUN " ,Feel free to give me a PM ,I would like to have it ?

I seem to recall that there was a run of twist barreled trojans sold to the Iver Johnson Co.

Thank You Jeff ,I had never heard that ! The Parker Story says they are very rare indeed there are a number of them but at the time of printing only 2 had been located ! Please note the X stamping ,this is how it is listed in the Parker Serialization Book ,also the # 1 Frame and it is a 12 Gauge ,something very unique !

Dave ,That was the second thing I noticed and I couldn't believe my eyes because I had already realized it was a Twist Steel Barrel ! I also noticed the X Stamping and ran for my serialization book ,that's when I decided that in fact is was way cool !

Just imagine what those would look like mounted on a Trojan.

It shouldn't be hard to find a 16 gauge Trojan to complete your gun.
