Congratulations on the CH! I believe you're right, it may well have been used as a trap gun.
Could you post some pics of the Italian barrels and markings? Thanks, David

According to the Miller Single Trigger website, Elmer Miller started designing the Miller trigger in the twenties, so I guess the safety installation was so he could go hunting with his trap gun. Where did Mr. Bristol live. I'll try to get information on him for you. The forend checkering is not a Parker pattern and the tip is from a splinter forend. What a great gun.
