Remington Made Trojan Numbers

Have looked everywhere, maybe just not the right place.
Can anyone tell me how many Trojan shotguns were made by Remington and how many were 20 gauge.

Any Trojan, or for that matter any Parker, finished after May 31, 1934 is a Remington made Parker. So, by extrapolation, any Trojan after (approximately) serial number 236275 is a Remington Trojan, but I don't know how you could possibly count the Trojans made from that point on.

Go to the serialization book and start counting Trojans after 236,275. For any gaps in the sn sequence, assume the same proportion in the gaps as not. That will get you to a rational number.

Belated thanks for the numbers count suggestion. Recently acquired a Remington made 20 gauge Trojan manufacture date of November, 1936, 26 inch barrels. Just thought that considering the total number of 20 gauge Trojans made vs the total of guns made by Remington might make the 20 gauge Remington Trojan a rarity. I just counted the Trojans in the serialization book and got the approximate numbers: Total-226; 124 with 26” barrel & 102 with 28 inch barrel. Probably a few more out there. Everyone can draw their on conclusions.
