I would highly doubt it. Miller installed the early single trigger on new Ithaca NIDs at "the plant" in Millersburg. The only other direct connection with a maker I am aware of was related to me directly by John Wilkes (in a pub) who told me in the 1960s they ordered 6 Miller triggers in Wilkes guns. The "kits" were sent to London. (There is a funny story to this about "a phone call from England" being transferred to the barbershop where Howard was have his hair cut. John called the local postmistress in Millersburg to see if he could get Howard and Delberts address and she said , "Oh, Howard is in the barbershop.") Normally, Wilkes used Boss single triggers as Tom Wilkes was particularly adept at installing and repairing them. I have been looking for one of these Miller triggered Wilkes guns for years.
