Talking about single triggers that make sense--when I was collecting Ithaca guns, esp the small bore 28's, many of those that I owned had an SST that selected with the use of the safety itself. To me it was the ultimate single trigger. The gun was on safe when the safety was in the center position. Pushing it forward as the bird flushed, fired the right barrel first. If it was a longer shot, pulling the safety to the rear fired the left barrel first. The tang was marked with an R in front of the safety and an L behind it. I believe Miller built this system first and Ithaca copied it eventually. Later Miller triggers used the toggle in front of the trigger as a selector. This ultimate safety/ barrel selector required care in making sure the trigger was in the safe position and prevented Steve Lamboy from using it in todays litigious world when he was building the ICD guns.
