An impressive miller trigger installation
 

This trigger is in a 20g. Trojan that is something else in itself. At one time a very good gunsmith (I suspect Lefever Arms) built a heck of a custom for whoever owned it. The gun was converted to Ejectors with a BTFE and deeply latch (fox latch). Restocked in straight grip with checkered butt. Long trigger guard from a G grade was installed and serial numbered. And a Miller Single Trigger was installed. An awful lot of custom work for a Trojan.

Anyway, The rocker selector on the trigger suggested to me that it was a miller from the start, but the way it was shaped was different that I had seen before. My only issue with the selectors shape is that it does not allow for the guards removal without taking the selector out.
When I opened the gun up, I found that it was a Miller. But it was one of the best Miller installations that I had seen. It is no new news that the original miller trigger installations were crude at best. This one is the exact opposite.

The rear section of the trigger assembly is a very sturdy piece of steel that wraps fully around the mechanism. These are usually a bend up piece of flat steel. This one is brazed right to the trigger plate instead of the typical type of installation where it is staked in place.

Here are photos of it.

I'd sure like to see the rest of that gun . . .

I assume you can at least rotate the guard 90 degrees to get the trigger plate screws out, right?

Thanks for sharing this one Brian. What a highly professionally done installation... on a Trojan no less!





.

Yes. But no farther than that.

I've never seen that style of Miller switch before. Is it a rocker styly like the other Miller switch in that position?





.

Yes. A rocker.

Like any other trade, there are true artists out there that may or may not have cult followings, but little or no attention on the national scale. Their work is their legacy, but often goes unnamed. It is always a treasure to be seen and appreciated, though. Thanks for sharing.

Brian, are they Parker ejectors or some other type? More pictures, please.

It was Parker ejectors that were fitted to the gun. Some of the parts in the ejector forend like the mainsprings were homemade (very well).
I scratch my head as to why a AH Fox forend latch was used and not a Parker one. But, oh well.

Like I said previously, I suspected that Lefever may have been the ones who did the gun. Since they were one of the few that would have been setup to install factory type Parker ejectors. And also do that type of quality work. But it is just a guess.
