I have sold true 95% trojans for far more than that.

You can also buy a Turkish import for more money but you won't get the quality of the Trojan or Fox's lowest grade, the Sterlingworth in that Turkish import. It boils down to what floats your boat.

I enjoy shooting my 20 ga Trojan even tho I have higher grade parkers

Apologize for mentioning, but high condition $2000 to $10,000 Trojans are about collecting, not shooting. I like both types.

Life's too short to be a collector.:)

Collecting isn't my game. Bird hunting over my English setter is

Friend of mine often said “I never overpaid for a gun that I really wanted!” Life is short, if it’s something you like and think you will enjoy don’t hesitate to take it out and shoot it.

My accumulation is a shooting collection. Some are worth more than others. They all get shot.

I bought a very nice 20 gauge Trojan with 28" BBLs a couple of decades back for close to 2k.
Top dollar? Maybe, but I have never regretted it. I'll never forget one hunt in particular, walking a deep irrigation canal, a German Shorthair working the brush on either side, and my friend Chuck walking the path another layer of brush away, keeping the birds in check.
The Trojan was a joy to carry, and very lively. Those dogs, and that friend, now gone, but the little gun is still in my safe.

I recently purchased a 16 gauge Trojan for $1,700. The video I saw it in it was advertised as a 20 ga. I didn't mind as I now have a set of Trojans 12, 16 and 20. I have some very nice Parkers, but the truth be told I would be happy shooting just Trojan's.
