Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Welcome to the forum, Byron!
When you cleaned and inspected, did you check the right hammer and sear engagement? Enough crud buildup could allow the right hammer to stay cocked (barely) , but with insufficient engagement, which would allow the hammer to slip off the sear when the left barrel is fired first.

Larry DelGrego & Son in Ilion NY have the original Parker Bros machine that cuts/grinds the sears to restore the proper angle/fit. It's a pretty simple fix for them to accomplish.
I had a 12ga Trojan that I have owned since '84 begin doubling 3 years ago, when a pull of the front trigger resulted in the simultaneous firing of two 3 3/4dram 1 1/4 ounce loads of Bismuth. It killed the Greenhead I was attempting to shoot, made a very loud report and hurt my fingers by jamming them hard into the trigger guard. I was able to replicate the problem without pain by inserting an empty primed hull in the other barrel and looking for a primer strike after firing one barrel. When I realized the problem was not a random experience I took it out to LDG & Son for repair. The gun had been restored by them in 2007 so the action was clean, the problem was a worn sear.
