Parker only made a handfull of single trigger Trojans. And if this gun is original then It is worth more than parting it out. However, the single trigger setup looks odd to me. Wouldn't the single trigger be selective. And the crude checkering on the tip of the trigger looks out of place.

Brian, you are correct that is not a Parker single trigger (at least from the ones that I have seen)

So if it's not original, was it possibly done when sent back for repair, or with some sort of kit? Are there any marks on the receiver that would indicate when and if a modification took place? Do factory records get detailed enough to indicate it it came with 1 or 2 triggers? Sorry for all the questions guys, but I am very curious as it seems to function very very slick and does not appear to be a hatchet job.

Thanks,
Bibb

No it does not look to be a hatchet job, the reason I said it did not look like a Parker trigger was the selector switch to switch from the right barrel to the left barrels was located where the left trigger was which on yours looks to be covered over with a plug. If you request a letter there maybe more information on the trigger.
