Default I may have its "brother"

I previously posted about the 12 gauge Trojan I bought from a private party for $500 cash money- sn 211440- almost identical to Mr. Goddard's Trojan 12- Mine has 28" barrels choked F&F-- But Mr. Murphy's comments have me intrigued. What is a hardware store gun? Is an 1926 series Trojan unaltered really worth 2K to possibly 3K in today's market.

Other questions as well. I passed on the VH 12 30" with the Briley tubes priced at $750, from the same private party- as I was told that altering an original and unmolested Parker is not a wise thing to do. How much of the value will I forfeit if I have the chokes opened on this nice handling Trojan- it has beautiful "between the hands" balance--What are the other options as to opening the patterns, which are "fist-tight" with field loads of No 6 and No 7.5 lead shot??
