Anyone experience their gun doubling? I had it happen twice today....scared the life out of me! What may be some causes for it doubling?

Rick, Single trigger or double trigger?

I had a 16 gauge Trojan thirty years ago that doubled on me a few times . And it went down the road .

If you have a Super Fox double on 3 inch shells, you can join a club no one needs to join. That hurt even worse than my 10 gauge Parker doubling

Double trigger, Parker Trojan. The only thing I can think of is the rear tang screw was tightened down pretty tight as it was proud coming out the top behind the safety. I loosened it back down, I'll get it out again and see if thats the ticket! Mills that 10 must have been loud!

Which direction do you turn a screwdriver in order to loosen it back down?

Ha Ha Nice, the screw back down level with the top tang? I guess that's a better way of saying it? Yikes, one is going down and the other is going up and vice versa, I guess it depends on what way you are looking at it, upside down?

It probably needs a good cleaning by a good gunsmith
