Overall Condition: The Damascus barrel set has beautiful spiral twist patterns and high retention of their browned finish. The receiver and its components appear to have been case colored, some tone is still left on top of the forend bracket and upper tang. The bare metal surfaces have a silvered patina and rubbing marks, though the engraved scenes still have crisp features. The lower tang was cleaned at some point, though in the distant past, as the metal has a return to a light patina. The metal to metal fit is spot on, the construction is rigid without play in the furniture with the action open or closed. The barrel set has a few dark spots of oxidation, though overall, we are impressed with the rib matting and markings, especially in protected areas. The screw head slots are lightly tooled but are all serviceable. Overall, this shotgun rates in about Very Good Plus to Fine condition.
Mechanics: The action functions correctly. The shotgun features double triggers and extractor; the tang mounted safety returns to ‘safe’ when the action is opened. The shotgun weighs 7lbs 12oz with no play in the frame to barrel fit. The hammers fall with authority and the triggers are crisp. We have not fired this shotgun. As with all used firearms, a thorough cleaning may be necessary to meet your maintenance standards.
Box, Paperwork & Accessories: None
Our Assessment: This Fine condition Parker Brothers GH Grade 2 Hammerless comes to us from 1897, when America’s most famous gun makers stunned the world with their craftsmanship and ability to rival established firms in Europe. This shotgun has elegant stocks and browned Damascus fine twist barrels. A bit of case coloring is still visible, the engravings are highly defined and the stocks are free of major damages. It would have changed a lot of hands in its 120-year life, it has been taken care of and is simply beautiful.

- Joe Oyer Says: Hi I have a Parker Trojan 20 gauge side by side serial # 195251 and a Parker 12 gauge Single Trap serial # 238161. Both guns are in reasonably good shape but I am NO EXPERT in assessing condition. Can yoy give me a range of values for these guns as I am inclined to sell them. My children aren`t interested in gun collecting and I would like to see them in the hands of an appreciative collector. Also does the Trojan have a Damascus type barrel? What type of barrel does the single trap have? I have shot standard load shells out of it in the past at a local trap range with no issues. I have never shot the Trojan. Where is the best place for me to sell these guns? I live in Mass. Thanks!! Joe
