I have ordered my serialization book but it has not arrived yet. Would someone mind telling me what configuration 128856 should be. The listing/pictures say it is a 16ga, VH, O frame with 26" barrels that are both IC. The weight of the barrels is 3 and 1.

I am having trouble deciding. I have narrowed my first purchase of a Parker down to 2 guns. A restored 16ga Trojan where I have been told the Case Colors were cyanide case colors but everything else looked "right" or the gun I describe here above. I have not had an opinion on the restoration yet and I believe that I cannot reference a gunbroker listing number since it is a commercial site so I won't.

The difference in price is that the VH is listed at $350 more than the Trojan.

thanks,


Jeff

Hello Jeff ,The book lists it as a V, Hammerless ,0 Options , Capped Pistol grip ,16 Ga. with 26" Barrels ! Good Luck on your decision !The Trojan will be a 1 Frame gun if that makes a difference to you ! Best ; Russ

Thank you very much. I guess it will come down to the restoration but I don't have enough hands experience yet to know whether it is a good one or a bad one. I think it is good but my concern is that the wood looks a little too blonde. For $350 I may go for the O if I can get comfortable with the wood restoration. The listing doesn't end for 12 days so I have some time.

thanks again,

Jeff
