One of the very scarce few made with Twist barrels, and I wasn't aware of any made in 20 gauge. BUY THE GUN.

Wait a minute... Hold on... Capped pistol grip??
Maybe a cobbled together gun...

I do not believe they are twist anymore, have asked for better pics of the barrel markings, but haven't heard anything back yet.

I can't read the rib marking... presume it says Trojan Steel based on the OV Trojan stamp on the barrel flat.

Possibly just another Ser. Book error.

That is what I was figuring. TPS makes no mention of a 20 ga trojan twist.
