At my age, 78 plus, I am less interested in my high condition guns and more interested in putting as many rounds as possible through the rest of them.

A somewhat similar gun in a 16 gauge in the 241K serial number range but not quite as nice as the subject gun which I know has absolutely nothing to do with the OP's original question

What's the deal with Dave Noreen's comment about the Trojan skeet gun?

Excellent question.
Perhaps Edgar is still standing next to Mr. Galazan and can ask him.
I'd be curious to know what the serialization book says. Help anyone?

I saw that also, and forgot to ask. I even had the barrels on the counter, and the Chubbs sitting right there.
I'm surprised no one has asked about SPECIAL.
Bobby, you don't have a book? It matches the book if that helps you write the check.
Haters gotta hate, but I suspect the gun won't sit very long.
Tony bought a nice Parker skeet gun yesterday also, but that's not my thing

Good evening Edgar.
Sorry to be so dense but what matches the book?
The description or the factory box?
Thank you.

It’s a 1/2 frame gun and could have been special ordered with those chokes maybe

Edgar, thanks for taking the time to add to this very interesting Parker and to provide more photos. I thought from the GI site there was not enough light on the gun to show the true color of the stock and forend. The dimensions of the stock are DAC: 1-3/4" but are likely less than that as the label on the box shows "5/3", which I think would be 1.67", or closer to "1-5/8". Did you shoulder the gun? Does it seem that low to you? Also, there appears to be some rub marks on the top, rear of the stock at the heel. Just handling marks? Thanks.

If it's a half frame gun, that would add some to its value and price. Is it on our half frame "list"? Can Researcher give us some information on his comment about a Trojan skeet gun?
