Default My First Trojan

I hope you guys are sitting down. You all ain't gonna believe this.. You will but you know what I mean!!
I'm waiting for delivery on My First Trojan ser # 181193. She is a 20 ga with.... are you ready??? 30 inch bbls. Yes 30 inch bbls.
You guys in the know know that Volume 1 says no Trojans with 30 inch bbls.
Not only does it have 30 inch bbls but is one of two ordered by A. W. du Bray!!!!
Mr. Conrad was kind enough to take a peek at the books before he receives my research letter request. In the meantime I'm dying to get this gun in my hands.

one of the great things about collecting guns is finding the exceptions...every time i hear "they never did that", i am reminded of posts like this...

Angel be sure to check the chambers and if they are 3" call me right away and I will get down there and pick it up. Those things are a ticking time bomb so let me know right away. Regards, Roger
