Daryl that is cool, did not realize you were a lefty. Glad its not an issue for you shooting your Parkers. Btw I have said it before but really like that pic of your lab. Every time I see it, it makes me weep nostalgic for my old lab that I swear is spitting image of yours in his day.

I agree with you about to sliding that finger back to left barrel being easy like Sunday morning. That is not the issue for me though. It is the abrasion of that sharp edge canted out some on left barrel trigger that causes a slight problem when shooting right barrel first. Like I said it may just be but it could be others.

I'm an average built guy at 6' and 190 lbs so can only think it might be an issue for others besides me. Every Parker with typical trigger set up I have shot does it. It is a simple cure if I think I am shooting a bunch then just put on a pair of gloves. I also have a slick lycra line stripping sleeve for fly fishing that I put on finger as well if remember it and its hot out. It is actually better than a glove.

Have thought about dulling or taking that sharp outside edge of trigger down some but just can't bring myself to do it. I just live with it and adapt and overcome.
