I paid $950 for my Trojan 16 a few years back. It’s far from collectible but I wouldn’t take the prices that are being mentioned here for it.

Three years ago I paid $1,200 for a beater 20 ga. Trojan. The wood was painted with a brown pigmented varnish, but the screws were very nice and it was nice and tight. I would pay easily the same today. I like the gun!

Stan the 28" 20 gauge Trojan I have weighs 6lbs even.

It's a wonderful gun I bought for my son before he could walk. It is exactly 100 years older than him made in 1913 with the rib extension. Choked IC/M

I try not to shoot too often as I am afraid I will fall in love with it! It just doesn't miss. He'll be shooting it in the next year or two.

Default $600 16 gauge Trojan with 28" barrels

Even in this condition, I thought this was a good buy. I think someone got a good shooter. You can't get anything for $600 bucks.

The Trojan was offered in very limited specifications. In the early years, only 28-inch barrels in all three gauges and the option of 30-inch barrels in 12-gauge. The 1913 flyer --

Circa 1915/6 --

1916 Trojan.jpeg

By 1923 they added the option of 26-inch barrels --

The 1930 catalog --

A couple of years before they dropped the Trojan Grade, Remington offered a single selective trigger --

The A.H. Fox Gun Co. offered their entry-level gun, the Sterlingworth, in all four barrel lengths in all three gauges as well as the option of ejectors and from 1914 onward the Fox-Kautzky Single Selective Trigger.

I have 2 20ga Trojans both with 28" barrels, they weigh 6lb 2oz and 6lb 4oz. They are great guns. If your looking for a 20ga Parker at a reasonable price look no further. They shoot and feel like any other 20ga Parker.
