Parker D single Trigger Question

[Larry Mason]

Hello,
I purchased this Parker D serial # 122229 (1903). It has a single trigger (1920). Notice the doohicky on top.http://http://cid-d8673c78006ca323.photos.live.com/self.aspx/New%20album/067.JPG

Sorry, I'm a Barney Rubble in a George Jetson world. I'll find a kid to do it when school is out today.
It is a 12ga D Grade with Damascus Barrels. The single trigger must be a add-on. I am sending for a letter on the gun. Sorry about the picture. I liked the thumbs down though. Kinda cute.

Thanks Dean. I sent them. I always thought my granddaughter's "Disney Princess" camera took great pictures until now.

This is Larry's Parker with the single trigger.

Opinions as to maker?... either Parker Single Trigger or Infallible are my thoughts.

Infallible

I recently purchased a GH Grade ,16 / 20 Ga. two barrel set built on the O Frame with the Infallible trigger ,really in a convenient spot for Barrel selection ! Was there any particular problems with this set up that any one is aware of ?

[Jim Akins]

There was a discussion on this trigger a couple of years ago on the doublegun site, see http://www.doublegunshop.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=59097&page=2 Probably there was a complicated linkage for the selector. IMHO the best selector was the one used on the early Miller trigger, it was on the saftey button, middle was safe , forward selected one trigger, back selected the other.

Jim ,Thank you ,read from cover to cover ,very interesting information ,I received my particular gun ,shot her a couple of times just to make sure it shot and cleaned her up and put it in the safe ,when my spring work is caught up ,I will see just exactly how the trigger works ! Thank you for the link ! Russ

.== Looks like the top tang machine screw head is 'altered" a bit- dunno- I'm with Southern writer C. Nicholson- "Any gun with two barrels should have two triggers as well":cool:

The Infallible Single Trigger was made in Lancaster, PA. The Infallible is unusual in that, when one barrel is fired and the gun reloaded, the "other" barrel will fire first. Only when both barrels are fired will the gun return to its original firing order. Strange, huh? Another strange fact is that Charles Daly advertised that their Prussian doubles were available with Infallible Single Triggers. Even hammer guns were equipped with the Infallible Triggers. At least two of our members own Infallible equipped hammer guns.
