When you are talking fair market value, more like $500.
A couple grand would be for a Trojan that is not altered and has a lot of original condition.

If it didnt cost you anything and it shoots well for you, then it is what it is.

Does it have "MILLER" stamp on the shank of the trigger? I think the Millers made a few non selective triggers, although I've never seen one.

Keep your promise. That is worth more than the gun.
Your son will love a well used Parker Trojan. I know I did and I gave it to my son with a proviso that it would go to his son or daughter.

Yes you have - the Miller trigger in my big straight grip BHE vent rib trap & pigeon gun was non-selective.

I too have seen a non-selective miller. The trigger itself looks like a miller on this Trojan, but i am not too familiar with a miller that uses two pins in the trigger plate like that.

Keith, I like your Trojan a lot! It has real character and in my opinion was transformed into a very neat little skeet gun. It has been used a lot since its transformation but certainly not abused. Enjoy it and shoot it a lot. You'll have some serious fun with that Trojan at the skeet field or in the tight and brushy uplands.

I think the nice little Trojan 20 made for young Larry DelGrego by his grandfather carries a non-selective Miller single trigger.

I like this gun as well. My first parker is a 16 ga Trojan that was converted to a straight stock with a beavertail forend, chambers and forcing cones pushed out and chokes opened up to skeet in/out. I purchased this from an old grouse hunter and a fine gentleman. This gun shoots where I look, and is the gun that got me hooked on upland hunting and SxS guns. It has absolutely no collector value, but would be the last gun I ever part with.

I don't think it is a Miller trigger in that Trojan. Here is Miller Non selective.

Since Pat showed it is not a Miller, I've had a change of heart --
