Default 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.
