This gun came from a pawn shop in Arizona. At first glance, I saw the rock hard "Whiteline" pad..clear plexi. spacers between the pad and grip cap...a sliver off the forend..and it was hard to open. But, it was a 20, so I put on my rose-colored glasses and paid the man...It has good specs....26"..F/IM..Rib extension..double ivory...and like new barrels with original blue. The stock had been slimmed down..has a Parker grip cap..."G" checkering, and a finish like new..SO..Off went the beavertail to Chris Dawe to fix the sliver..It was done flawlessly..It had 2 broken springs which were replaced, and the action was serviced.I had a nice VH straight grip stock, and thought..."I'll try a switch again"..This time it worked..along with a Galazan TG. Then to Noelle in CT. for a little engraving...So...here it is..fits me like a glove..Comments encouraged !

Why would it take a year???

The frame is ready to go.

Turnbull always has my case coloring back within 1-2 months. At the most.

Justin at Classic Case Colors does fine work as well. And he usually always has a great turnaround on prepped and ready to go parts.

I like it. Just another reason to never pass on a Trojan 20, always a possibility. Great gun.

I like the initials on the trigger guard. A hundred years from now someone will be searching these forums for a clue to to who that was.
