No, they look like upland hunters. This is what a Trojan looks like....

No Trojan in his collection shown in "Playboy", October 1962

Fore-end doesn’t look “Trojanesque” to me.

Probably a loaner :).

Sure looks like a recessed hinge pin. But what do I know!

Looks to me like a Trojan.

Nevertheless, smart guy, discriminating man with taste: he's shooting "Old Reliable".
