Trigger Guard Question

[Mark Sjoberg]

Hello everyone. I recently acquired a circa 1902 12 gauge GH and a circa 1925 12 gauge VH. Both beautiful guns in my eyes. My question is regarding the shape of the trigger guard and if the guard on the VH has been bent. Please let me know your thoughts based on the attached photo. Thank you for your kind assistance.

They both look fine to me.
Each gun is different.

Thank you Mr. Dudley. Your opinion is much appreciated.

If anything the shape of the guard on the GH bothers me more as there is a little more room between the guars and the tips of the triggers than one may like, ideally. Not that there is anything wrong with it. It is just how the gun was made. Both of them.

Of course one person may feel completely different about it than another. Ie: size of hands, shooting with or without gloves on, etc...)

I agree with Brian, every gun of that era is hand built and can be a little different. I would be proud to own either of them!
