Aren't you in VEGAS?

I think they were refering to a competition where two shots are allowed at a target. Most shooters take both on every one to be safe and an instant repeat is better. Sorta like a pistoldouble tap. I don't own a double gun with a single trigger, but for that particular game I think it would be an advantage.

Having shot box birds with a double trigger, it’s not slower than a single. The only thing that would make one trigger slower than another are the reactions of the shooter.

I'm a southpaw shooting "right handed" triggers and have never felt handicapped. They are just as fast, and more reliable IMO, than a single trigger.

I clearly have less shotgun experience than those already commenting but would add this- once out of about every 100 rounds I shoot while upland hunting I fail to release the single trigger completely (on one of my modern doubles) after my first shot and when I pull for the second shot the second barrel will not fire until I release the trigger all the way. This is operator error but also an argument in favor of double triggers. I have not had this happen with my VH 12 with a Miller Single Trigger for some reason.
On the other hand, I am very grateful that my Sig Sauer P320 only has one trigger.
Good discussion- thank you.
