Hi everyone. I recently purchased my first Parker, a Trojan 20 gauge, and came across this forum while looking for info. I look forward to learning more about these fine shotguns and hopefully sharing some game pictures this fall.

Welcome Jacob!

You're going to have a lot of fun with that little Trojan!

Welcome to the PGCA Jacob. Thank you for becoming a member and supporting the association. Of course we would all love to see that 20 gauge. What a great first Parker. How long are the barrels?

Thanks y'all! It has 26" barrels, and was made in 1912. I've been wanting a Parker for several years, and I couldn't be happier with this one. I'm really looking forward to chasing birds with it this fall (and some clays with it Friday).

That is the gun for it for sure. Do you know what the chokes are?
