Single trigger problems

[Richard Flanders]

Good pics Chuck. I've harped about this for years. Just about every Parker I take apart looks like that. I'm guessing that one cleaned up just fine based on what I've experienced. It's amazing how gummed up they can be and still work just fine.

I own a single trigger Repro. We thought it was developing a single trigger problem. My son Danny was shooting the gun more than I and he had a few cases of it doubling. It turned out that he wasn't shouldering the gun tightly enough and recoil was bouncing the gun on his shoulder thus causing him to bump the trigger. So that is something to watch for.

I have been told that the Repro single trigger is very close to the Parker two screw single trigger but not exactly. Maybe someone with knowledge of this mechanism will chime in here and clear this up.

Rich,
yeah, that's probably a testament to how mechanically simple they and large part's resistance to interference from debris.

But a single trigger is on a different scale. No way it would tolerate this type of junk in a single trigger, maybe no single trigger design out there.
