Welcome Joseph!

Thanks all. Like I said it was given to me from my uncle. Father Arthur Prunier. He was an avid hunter.
I posted some pictures on this site and sent the serial numbers into Parker. |

[QUOTE=Dean Romig;245721]Welcome Joseph!
Being in Mass too, I share your misery. What town are you in? What grade is your Parker? Please show us some pictures. Dean Dean, I’m from central Ma on Lake Quinsigamond, where abouts are you? I’ve posted some pictures in an album, if you search my name you should find them. Please pardon my ignorance in posting, I’m rather new at this. |

Hi Joseph - It looks like your serial number might be 202830 but it's really hard to see the last two digits in your pictures. That would make it about a 1923 Trojan.
I learned to shoot a side by side on a 1913 12 gauge Trojan with 28" barrels on pheasants and ducks back in Danvers where I grew up. I'm in Andover now and wishing I was in VT, NH or ME... .

Dean, you’re correct, it’s a 1923, but I never shot it. I would hunt with a Mossberg 12 gauge pump in Rutland, Ma.
I had a yellow lab who was dump as a rock but was a natural in the field. So I took up hunting because of him. An accident has since stopped my days in the field but I still make it to the local range. If you ever make it south to Worcester please drop me a line. |
