Hi Tom and Welcome!
That is a very attractive Trojan. IMO those tags are suspect. Were they written in ballpoint pen? It sure appears they were. Parker “never” listed the chokes in thousandths that I know of. They would normally have listed pellet count for each choke. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but then, I could be wrong. Further, are you certain that stock is 13”? Measure it yourself from the forward trigger. It looks longer. And on the other tag… “Field”??? Parker would have written the actual grade there like VH or VHE or PH or PHE and so on. .

Dean were all hang tags written in pencil? The few I've seen photos of have been.

I bought some hangtags from a dealer on Ebay. I'm pretty sure that's what I'm seeing here...but, still, a couple of nice Parkers is a treasure trove.
Welcome. You'll learn much from the folks here.

Andy, mostly pencil but I've seen some written with an ink-well pen.

Thanks Randy - It would appear that Remington preferred to use a typewriter... wonder if it was a Remington typewriter?
