Shoot it with confidence John!!!

It will love 2 3/4" shells and it'll be quite comfortable for both you and your Trojan!!

I cut my Parker teeth in 1961 on a 12 ga. Trojan 167347 with off the shelf 2 3/4" ammo... whatever the hardware store had in stock at the time. I'm quite sure the chambers must have been the same length as yours but at 13 years old, I never thought to check... heck, such a thought never even crossed my mind. I shot that Trojan for 4 or 5 years when the owner moved to Boise and wanted the gun back.

I wrote a story about my experience with that gun titled "The Last Trojan Pheasant" for Parker Pages back in ..... Issue and year being investigated...
