I have some additional information and of course additional questions.

I still am unclear on whether the chambers are 2.5" or 2.75"

The gun has 26" bbls and is choked IC/MOD is this likely, as I see some documentation indicating MOD/FULL was the choking for Trojans. I understand never say never and always.

LOP to front trigger is 13 15/16" which sounds like a standard butt stock

The forend hardware s/n matched to the gun the "block of wood" is just that. So another one will need to be made or found.

I am seeing these guns going for about $2K. Is that a fair ball park value, given no specific condition with which to compare? Said another way, if a gun has been shot and used with reasonable care and attention is a Parker Trojan made in 1925 going to be worth about $2,000 assuming it is shootable? Again, a gun will be worth what someone will pay for it. That is not what I am trying to convey. My question is, is the market of 1920's trojans that have been hunted in the field causing reasonable blemishes worth about $2,000 in today's market?

Any thoughts are appreciated.
