VH 20 w/ 26" barrels

[Dean Romig]

26" barrels are quite common on Parkers from .410 up to 12 ga. but scarce on 10 ga. and unheard of on 8 ga. guns

I also have a Trojan 20 with original 26" barrels (confirmed by PGCA Letter).

I have a 26-inch barrel, 0-frame, VH-Grade, 20-gauge, shipped in 1930. It still has the short chambers for the 2 1/2 inch shells, and is choked plenty tight. I'm at our place in Kodiak, AK, away from my records, so can't give what the letter and my micrometer says about the chokes right now.

i do not have a letter on my johney cash gun its a g grade with v grade barrels but they have not been cut and are 26 inches barrels made in 1904 by serial no...i agree the 26 inch and less barrel were the rage in there dayin the south for quail... i like short barrels for there ease of handling.... charlie

Number 171102 is a 26" Titanic 16 gage choked RH Cyl. LH Mod. per it's PGCA letter. Number 176884 is a 26" Titanic 12 gage choked RH. Cyl. LH Full per it's letter. I have other examples of guns ordered with one barrel open and the other tight. Having hunted for years with a flusher this combination with two triggers offers the choice not to destroy a close flush or to pull the back trigger on a bird that gets up at extreme ranges.

And we must not forget that sweet little Titanic 28 ga. straight grip 26" DH that was choked right open and left close... yes, I still dream about that one...
