A 12g trojan was standard on a 2 frame with 28” and 30” barrels.
I am sure that the factory would entertain a request for 26” barrels.

This goes back to kirks question. If a 28” 2 frame 12g was so out of the ordinary, the fsctory would not have made it a standard offering on the trojan.

I guess not out of the ordinary exactly, but it would have to be a customer request if not a Trojan I would think.

I remember Bob Fabian had a 26” 12 gauge in high condition that I believe was on a 2 frame about 7 years ago for sale at Hausmann’s.

I don’t remember the grade but I know it a GH or less in grade.

I bought that gun from Bob but have since parted with it

I cannot recall the frame size though. It was a high condition GHE with 26" barrels.

I have a 20g Trojan straight grip two bbl set. One bbl is 26" and the second is 28". Everything is SN to the gun.

I've got two at 26" 2 frame 12's. One is the first barrel from a two barrel set. The other is a late 30's skeet gun with BTFE and skeet chokes.

Come on Mike...

The two barrel set mentioned above is a DH from 1902. The short barrels are .000 and .006, the second set is 30" and .030 and .037 which are chamber lengthened to 3". It has a replacement Monte Carlo stock at 16" LOP. I call it my Pareto gun as it shoot 80/20. The guy who had the new stock affixed must have looked like Lurch.

A 2 frame 26" skeet gun from the late 30's? Let us have a look at this one please.
