its a 28

AND it has hammers

what is not to like

especially "priced right"

the only question is

why is the picture taken in a gun shop - not in your house

and for reference -

Thomas sold a nice one a couple of weeks ago on this site. I'm still kicking myself for not buying it. A nice 28ga hammer at a reasonable price. Bob

As originally introduced circa 1909, they were offered in .44 caliber and 28-gauge --



By 1912 they had added a 20-gauge version --



They eventually added the 14mm/32-gauge and by about 1915 the .44 caliber also took .410-bore shells --

Its nice but I was distracted by two parkers they just took in.The first is an honest VH 12ga with #2 frame 28" barrels(vulcan).The 2nd a 12ga trojan hammer gun #3 frame with 32" barrels.

The hammer gun has(parker 12ga) has laminated barrels.
Gun really caught my eye but handling it I realized just how large a frame it is.
Can't seem to stop thinking about it.Would be fun in a duck blind.

there are no Trojan hammer guns

that looks like an 0 grade - if i read the serial number right it books as a 12ga 32 inch with plain twist barrels

what are the bores like

And PS
I want to shop with you

Where do you get this stuff so fast?
I wish I was you. Then I could really write some articles.
