I love those old Trojans. No frills but the wood to metal fit was the quality of the graded guns. Great guns. I have one now that I am restoring. The barrels are done and I'll begin work on the stock finish and then the checkering.
Mike's Trojan is one great looking gun.

Mike, was it your call to put a graded stock on the gun?

yes it was cheaper to do that than repair original broken stock and it makes the gun unique

the original stock was a clean breakthrough at the wrist and one of the parker members gave a great deal on a new factory unfinished stock
