I grew up shooting side-by-sides with double triggers. While I'd shot plenty of repeaters at skeet and such, the first double I got with a single trigger was a Fox SPE-Grade Skeet & Upland Game Gun in 1977. I took it Dove shooting in September 1977 and found I could only fire one shot as I'd then be fumbling around feeling for the back trigger!! Never had that problem at Skeet. Apparently in my feeble mind a side-by-side double in the field needs two triggers.

I guess the manufacturers came up with these single triggers so "collectors" would have something to discuss a hundred years later!!
