Personally, I don’t find single triggers quicker than double triggers. I’ve fired hundreds of thousands of shells combined out of single and double trigger guns and have never felt handicapped using double triggers on a quick true pair.

I think they were refering to a competition where two shots are allowed at a target. Most shooters take both on every one to be safe and an instant repeat is better. Sorta like a pistoldouble tap. I don't own a double gun with a single trigger, but for that particular game I think it would be an advantage.

Having shot box birds with a double trigger, it’s not slower than a single. The only thing that would make one trigger slower than another are the reactions of the shooter.

I'm a southpaw shooting "right handed" triggers and have never felt handicapped. They are just as fast, and more reliable IMO, than a single trigger.
