Default Legends and Lies

I just saw a tease for Sunday's showing of Legends & Lies and it looks like Black Bart is using a Parker lifter but when I stepped through the video slowly, it looks like it only has one trigger. I assume it is a "wall hanger"?

Miller would put their single trigger on hammer guns. I've also seen a Three-Barrel Gun Co. drilling fitted with a Miller single trigger!!

My Greener has a Miller trigger . Can't say I've ever been overly pleased with it . Well I should say when it works I like it , but when it doesn't work well you get the idea . I've had the gun I think 40 years this summer !

Gentlemen:
The Travel Channel show "Mysteries at The Museum" did a segment on Black Bart and his shotgun. It appears to me as a fairly cheap English side lever. Here's a link:
