Karen:

Will you or a member of your family be enjoying the use of the gun, for target shooting or hunting, or is it to be retained as a meaningful artifact of your family history?

For most of us our vintage guns serve all of those purposes.

Karen, that Miller single trigger is a good trigger. I have a couple that were on my guns. I also have an Infallible single trigger that is being changed to a Miller as we speak. I prefer double triggers, but the Miller will serve you well.

I'll echo the comment about having a competent gunsmith check those barrels. Those ribs could have loosened from hot bluing.

Mike, why are you giving up on the Infallible trigger? I have several and they all work fine.

Mine had a doubling problem. Easier to covert it than to find someone to fix it.

Who is your choice of a gunsmith to fix your problem? Miller Single Triggers?

Yup, nobody else wanted to touch it.
