Default Parker trojan purchase

Purchased a 12 gauge trojan earlier today. 2 3/4”, 30 inch full and modified. Seller said bores are excellent and shiny, locks up tight, screws all good, still some colour here and there on receiver. Appears to be all original, perhaps minus the recoil pad, even though it’s showing a good age as well. Small chip and crack on right side of forend tip, and the obvious pin repairs to the stock, internal crack(s). Picked it up for $399 which I thought was decent in my opinion. Will make a good rain/snow day bunny gun!

These are dealer pics, as I don’t have it in my possession as of yet.

"Well worth $399 in my opinion. Enjoy."

In US dollars, $399 is about $300 U.S.

Finishes are original. The pad and hardware through the head of the stock are not. Given the “wrongs” with it. It is worth what you paid. But not a ton more. It will make a good shooter.
