Came off like a charm. I was just worried that I might damage it in the process. I've got more pics now in the album, any thoughts or information would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome aboard, Daniel. That is a sweet Trojan! Gorgeous wood. I would like to think that a 20 gauge Trojan is far less common than the 12s and 16s, especially in that condition. Cheers!

Hi Daniel and welcome.
You have a very pretty Trojan there and I hope you intend to use it both on clays as well as for hunting. You may or may not know that your gun has had a complete makeover - new stock and forend as well as reblued barrels with a new front sight and it looks like the frame was blued as well. It is very pretty and I would be proud to have such a nice-looking Trojan. |

Daniel,
Like you I received a Parker Trojan 20 gauge from my father. He gave it to me in a dove field a few years before he died. It was his main gun for many years and he carried it a lot. He even carried it on his lap on the train going back and forth to a military school in Virginia. They are a dream to shoot and 7/8 oz of shoot will kill anything flying. Kindest, Harry |

Hey guys, thanks for the information. I do intend to use it for hunting and clays. This was one of two guns that my father had bought to give to me as my first guns. The other was a Remington Nylon 66. I was really happy for it to be in such good condition, because it had been sitting untouched, uncleaned, and not in a case in my grandfathers house in NC for 16 years. I thought for sure it was going to have some rust issues, but after i gave it a thorough cleaning, it came out really nice.
