Serialization Longshot
 
Big request please.
Looking for serialization information including serial number range.
10 to 12, 20 gauge Trojans, 32" barrels, 3" chambers.
Special order, ordered together, serial# 156XXX (sorry, that's all I've got).
I've not seen the serailization book but I'm guessing 10 to 12 32" Trojans of similar configuration might stick out.

Sorry but that's all the info I have at the moment.
Guns were ordered for a Central California "Duck Club" ca. 1911

Thank you,
Bob

there are not very many in the 156*** range in the book-

a quick scan of the grades in those couple of columns listed did not show any Trojans

The tables in The Grades chapter of The Parker Story don't show any 32-inch barrel 20-gauge Trojans. The Trojan was only catalogued with 26- and 28-inch barrels in 16- and 20-gauge and 26-, 28- and 30-inch barrels in 12-gauge. The first Trojan in the stock books is 159374.

Thank you.

I'd guess any 10 ga Trojan would stick out too.

There were some Trojans made with Twist barrels. The two that had surfaced by the time The Parker Story went to print were 12-gauges. The orders in the Stock Books show PTX. There are seven PTX 10-gauges entered in the books but as of the time The Parker Story went to print none had surfaced. So, perhaps there are a handful of 10-gauge Trojans?

Thanks for the effort.
I'll have this gun in hand hopefully by the end of May.
Details to follow.

I think this is a 20 gauge Trojan in question, not a 10 gauge.

I have an order for a 32" Trojan in my collection but it was cancelled. The 32" Trojan 20 gauges are obviously in missing stock books, if they exist.
