I guess if its the early 1900's with long seasons, favorable limits, and the means to buy one Parker I would choose a #2 frame, 12 ga., with 28" barrels. Sounds like the right gun for ducks, pheasants, and grouse in upstate NY in the early 1900's.

I guess not out of the ordinary exactly, but it would have to be a customer request if not a Trojan I would think.

I remember Bob Fabian had a 26” 12 gauge in high condition that I believe was on a 2 frame about 7 years ago for sale at Hausmann’s.

I don’t remember the grade but I know it a GH or less in grade.

I bought that gun from Bob but have since parted with it I cannot recall the frame size though. It was a high condition GHE with 26" barrels.

I've got two at 26" 2 frame 12's. One is the first barrel from a two barrel set. The other is a late 30's skeet gun with BTFE and skeet chokes.

A 2 frame 26" skeet gun from the late 30's? Let us have a look at this one please.
