A late 12 ga Trojan with 28" barrels in very high original condition with about 50% bright colors. Only non original part was a crudely applied recoil pad but the butt was uncut. Dean Romig came to the rescue with a donation of an original Parker Trojan plate which is now perfectly nestled on it. Thanks, Dean!

This 12-ga. 2-frame DH with 30" damascus barrels was a Lewis Class prize gun which I had won at the UP S X S Classic.

In 1901, a fellow by the name of R. L. Sopes of Westfield, MA ordered a DH two-barrel set, #104098. In 1902 he ordered another set of barrels for that gun, thus making a 3-barrel set. Then in 1911, Mr. Sopes ordered a new frame, stock and forend from the factory and had them fit one of those barrel sets to this new frame at a total cost of $37.50. This is that gun, #155290:

Glad I could help out in a small way Joe.

Best, Dean

The last Parker Bros. I bought was the 2-frame 12-/20-gauge, but it did get restocked by Craig Libhart last year --

Dave Noreen, I examined a Libhart restocked Monte Carlo Parker at the Northeast Shoot. It also was very nice.
