Trojan Skeet Gun

[B. Dudley]

When I was at Remington doing research on my article on the 1928 James P. Hayes prototype Trojan at Remington, S/N 226709. I also had the chance to handle and break down the Trojan Skeet gun. It is Serial number 237447. It is a 2 frame 12g. with Single Triggers and an Experimental coil spring driven ejector system. It features an experimental forend latch that is of a roller type. This gun, like many others inthe museum has had its sears removed from it so it will not cock or fire. The trigger plate and screws are pretty mangled and dented up from someone crudely getting into it at one time.

Here are some photos of the gun. And a couple that I took of it when I had it broken down. I thought I took more of it while I had it in hand. But I didnt. It was not the major reason for my visit there, so I did not dwell on it long.
