Engraved Trojan

[chris dawe]

From Bruce ..."The gun was not intended for anyone else, not intended for resale, not intended for any purpose other than the personal satisfaction and use of a master gunsmith and engraver as an exercise of his abilities."

You said it all right there ,we all know what the gun is and what it isn't ,there was no secret as to its origin ,no question as to the skill that created it and who it was created for .

Thank you once again for sharing Bruce

I am new here to the Parker forum... Inherited a 1926 Engraved 20 Gauge Trojan 16 years ago and started this journey then, and frustratingly quit shortly after. I did see two different appraiser's that were highly recommended at the time and both gave me similar info about the engravings and neither could really comprehend why on the Trojan. I put it in the safe and gonna start down this road again, and any help and or information would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you and I hope you have a Great Day!

I wish mine had nicer wood. If I knew the value of the gun I might invest in upgraded wood but it would be expensive. Since my wood is plain, and looks original, I think my gun was engraved after it left the factory.
Thanks,

Thank you for the reply Ron. This gun was dropped and a small piece is missing from the stock and was lost. I would also be interested in replacing & or having repaired. I have no idea on price or even a actual value of the gun to see if worth investment.

Thank you,
Troy

An easy and pretty inexpensive repair for a good stock man. It will still be visible, but will not look bad as they should match the walnut and finish.
