My first experience shooting and hunting with a Parker was the one I borrowed from a school friend back in about 1960 when I was twelve. It had been his grandfather’s Trojan and his grandfather had lived in Saco, Maine… I wonder if Mr. Hunnewell originally sold that gun too.
I’ll need to get the serial number from it and check with Chuck.
