Yes. The order book info was vague but I did get info from G&H records. The gun was ordered by a lawyer from NJ.

I was not aware of that gun having documentation of the trigger being factory installed. It is a miller. And it is the cleanest miller trigger install internally that I had ever seen. Which meant it was not done by the miller brothers. I always figured it may have been by Lefever.

Brian, Dan looked at that Trojan too and said it looked like a Miller. The VHE also was single trigger in the order book. I find both triggers very interesting.

Those are new ones on me. All the MILLER single selective triggers I know look like this. Early style with the safety as the selector --

and the later style with the rocker switch --
