Well, we will wait for someone with more technical experience than I but I am pretty sure. If you have photos of the barrel flats should in fact tell us for sure. Your serial number does not show up in the Identification and Serialization book so that is no help to us. The gun itself will tell us on the flats.

My judgement is based on 4 indicators. The first is that the fore end has a latch rather than just a pull off, second there is a pistol grip cap (Trojans do not) third the Dog's Head Butt plate (Trojans have a plain horizontal lined butt stock plate) and finally the engraving, while simple is more than a Trojan would carry.

I am sure others will have much more sophisticated judgement, but those indicators tell me you own a VH grade gun and not a Trojan. Nice.

If I am wrong, I will have learned something and will owe you a sincere apology, but I believe that not to be the case.

A short wait and someone with knowledge of such things will weigh in.
