parker bros history and information

[Bill Murphy]

Our friend Peter Johnson was incorrect when he mentioned the 24 gauge Trojans. They were V Grade hammerless guns. The T Grade is a 0 (zero) grade hammer gun. Seven of the 48 Trojans with Twist Steel barrels were 10 gauge. There are two 28 gauge Trojans mentioned in the records. We have also seen a Trojan with ejectors, single trigger, beavertail forend in skeet configuration. It is pictured in a late Remington parts price list and was in the Remington Museum in 1998.

Thanks Bill, I should have qualified my post with "Guns listed in Parker sales brochures" or sum such...

I just recieved an e mail from Charlie Price. He indicates that the two 28 ga Trojans are typos; the barrel length appears in the gauge column. He thinks this is corrected on the TPS errata sheet.
Thank you Charlie

Best, Austin
