I have two 28" Trojan 20's and both measure mod/imp Mod or full depending on how you read the gauge. They are 1916 and 1926 guns and just fun to carry and shoot. Perfect balance at 6 lbs, Parker built a great little 20 ga. that we can enjoy and afford.

you have to shoot them at paper to see what they are choked. drop in choke gauges just give you a close size. pattern them at 40 yds at a 30 inch circle. I have a 28 in. trojan 12 ga. choked f/f .035 in both barrels and it shoots f/f. and a 26 inch barrel choked .010 and .022 factory ?? I don't know but it shoots light mod and mod.

My thought is it's a Trojan and it would only be collectible vs. a shooter if it was in very high original condition. For a Trojan in average working condition the more open chokes would attractive to me. As it was stated above, only pattern testing will verify exactly how it's choked, because some guns pattern a lot tighter than you think they would given the constriction.

My 30" 20 gauge Trojan letters as full and full, was ordered that way and is that way now. I may try her on cicadas, but I prefer a tight bored .410.
