It's a extremely attractive 1913 Trojan 20 gauge, though at that price it will likely never sell. I'm guessing it's only overpriced by perhaps around $4000-$4500. I could be way off. They will incrementally lower the price over time until it's sold. I don't often see one that nice. I think there's always demand for high condition examples. I'm not hitting "speed dial".
There may have been a company wide bulletin reviewing Parker Brothers valuations.

That must be a very special up grade for the butt stock:shock:

Oh, that GH butt stock. I didn't see that mentioned in the book.

Personally I think the case color looks a bit dark and overwhelming. Isn't factory Parker case coloring somewhat subdued? Just my observation.

Prices
 
Typical Cabela’s, 10 miles high or 10 miles low.

It appeared to me that it was restocked by Remington. From what I can see of the Remington repair code on the barrel flat it looks like BPP3 or BRR3 B = January, PP = 1945, RR = 1946. Perhaps they also refreshed the metal finishes at that time?

Real?
 
That gun looks pretty real to me, but then again I believed in the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy. That stock certainly looks like it was made and fitted to that gun, capped pistol grip, dogs heads butt plate and all. Of course it's doomed now that they have priced it wrong. They will never let it go for what it's worth because they paid way more for it than that.
