Here is the current GB listing on this gun.

http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=267580628

The seller was at the Rochester, Ny Gun show this weekend and he had the gun with him. I had the chance to look it over. It is a very nice custom Trojan. Cyanide colors are great, bluing is perfect. Wood fit is great too. The stock dimentions are pretty good too. I would guess about 2-1/4 or 2-3/8 Drop at heel with about 14" LOP. It was a tad high for me and I usually shoot 2.5" Drop.

I see he has lowered his Buy it now on GB to $2,350 which is also what he had on it at the show. So if anyone was maybe thinking about it, I thought I would give my personal assessment after looking at it.

I too agree that it is high. Just wanted to say that I was able to see it with my own eyes.

very nice upgraded and redone trojan. looks like other del grego redone guns i have seen. too bad seller does not have receipt. the lack of provenance does adversely affect resale value.
