Trigger Guards

[Dean Romig]

It's all in The Parker Story Allen... You have a copy don't you?

Aside from the changes and 'improvements' Remington made to the Parker shotgun listed in TPS we continue to learn of others.

I have Trojan 20's and VH 16's and the guards are different widths but appear to be the same length. The older guns have the wider guards.

[B. Dudley]

Any variation in width would be no more than the variation in finishing from gun to gun.

[Bruce Day]

Parker trigger guards.

[B. Dudley]

Bruce will not elaborate, so i will.

The difference one will observe between the two guards that Bruce posted is a function of the grade of gun. Not the gauge or frame size as originally questioned.
Grades B and higher had their guards more finely finished and thinned out in the rear of the bow.

[Bruce Day]

All true.

I just have a few old beaters so that I go road hunting with my buds, chase down my bird dogs and shoot those little birds up along the Canadian border.

[Mike Franzen]

Look at those two desperados hunting from the Royal Coach.

[Tom Flanigan]

The pictures Bruce posts are wonderful. I wonder how he has access to so many great Parkers. Incredible. Maybe all the guns are his. The only thing wrong with that picture is the towel it is on. It should be yellow or a nice a nice mullti colored paisley.

[Mike Franzen]

That is a vintage towel Bruce was lucky enough to pick up at a K Mart blue light special back in the day. It’s secret lies in the fact that any gun laid upon it looks better than the background.

[B. Dudley]

I would not sell one.
