[Bob Hayes]

Any thoughts on these guns?Looks in good shape and priced right I believe.Sweet handling very little gun.

its a 28

AND it has hammers

what is not to like

especially "priced right"

the only question is

why is the picture taken in a gun shop - not in your house :rotf:

Grab it quick before I find out where it's for sale.

Thomas sold a nice one a couple of weeks ago on this site. I'm still kicking myself for not buying it. A nice 28ga hammer at a reasonable price. Bob

As originally introduced circa 1909, they were offered in .44 caliber and 28-gauge --

By 1912 they had added a 20-gauge version --

They eventually added the 14mm/32-gauge and by about 1915 the .44 caliber also took .410-bore shells --

Its nice but I was distracted by two parkers they just took in.The first is an honest VH 12ga with #2 frame 28" barrels(vulcan).The 2nd a 12ga trojan hammer gun #3 frame with 32" barrels.

[Bob Hayes]

The hammer gun has(parker 12ga) has laminated barrels.
Gun really caught my eye but handling it I realized just how large a frame it is.
Can't seem to stop thinking about it.Would be fun in a duck blind.

[Rick Losey]

there are no Trojan hammer guns

that looks like an 0 grade - if i read the serial number right it books as a 12ga 32 inch with plain twist barrels

what are the bores like

And PS
I want to shop with you :)

[Daryl Corona]

Where do you get this stuff so fast?
I wish I was you. Then I could really write some articles.

[Bob Hayes]

Yeah I thought the trojan was wrong but did not have my glasses with me and was looking at 3 guns at the same time.I could swear the barrels said laminated on them.Is that possible?

[Bob Hayes]

What does the book say about the VH if anyone has time.The S/N 148164 my book is at home.I guess I should get another to keep at the ranch.

[Rick Losey]

12 ga 30 inch no extras - pistol grip stock

[Bob Hayes]

Also has an ivory bead
Thanks

I guess anything's possible.

That's at a Gander MTN.
Those H&R 28g and 20g hammer guns are kinda neat. And they do carry a pretty good price tag for being an H&R.

I've answered questions on these guns before, and have the scans already loaded on Photobucket.
