Nope. Parker never used that checkering pattern on any of their guns.

I was reading about the Trojan. Whats the story about the 10 guage twist "Trojans"? Do you have any opinions. Kind of a oximoran <--- no? ch

Didn't think it would be factory but have learned here to "never say never", thus the question. Only have pics. It also looks like the frame is drilled above the hammer screw. Wonder what that might be about? No intention to pursue this one.

There were some 12 gauge 'Twist' Trojans. I believe someone here recently purchased one.

I'm going out on a limb here Jack, and I know it, but I'll reiterate - Parker never used that checkering design on any guns they produced.
