VH with a Trojan Grade Stock
 
Wondering if I could glean a little insight from you guys. I recently purchased a VH grade 20 gauge, serial number 142004. One thing I noticed, is that it seems to have a Trojan grade pistol grip stock and not the grade stock typically found on a VH. Could this have been a repair or a special order for the lower grade stock? I have looked through pictures of the typical trojan stocks and it matches exactly. Checkering is identical with no grip cap and a plain black butt cap.

Thank you for your help.

Maybe order a letter or pull the trigger guard and see what or if the number is on the wood

Most likely a non-factory replacement.

There is no reason that a V would be ordered with a Trojan stock (no realistic reason at least).

As dean posted, the stock was likely just from another gun.

Brian, A question for you.
Could a Trojan stock have a grip cap and correct putt plate added and be reshaped into a proper or at least passable V grade stock? Just wondering!

Will also need to have the nickel shield inletted in the toe line.

Anything can be done, generally speaking.

And when Brian says "anything", here's an example: a replacement Remington pistol grip corrected to the lettered straight grip including the correct wrist size and all...NICE work, thanks Brian

Jim,

I forgot about that gun. It is a good example of a Straight grip conversion.

How long ago did you do Jim’s conversion Brian?
