Bill, hopefully there will be a few doubles trophies and buckles to go with it.

John I think you have a valid point on the double vs single trigger thing . The VHE 32” vent rib trap I had was a single trigger gun . I had a couple instances shooting box birds where I was shooting and the second barrel failed to fire , but it was caused by me not releasing the trigger enough to reset before the second shot . I never had issue with the gun shooting doubles at skeet trap or sporting or Colombaire for that matter . But shooting boxbird quail I was trying to shoot the second barrel a heck of a lot quicker and not allowing it to reset .

I’ve gone 50 straight in doubles a number of times, always with double triggers. Never with a single trigger.

Correction, once with a single trigger.
