I grew up shooting 1100's and 870's so double triggers were (are) a mystery to me When Remington came out with the 3200, they put on the best single trigger barrel selector ever invented. The safety is on the trailing edge of the receiver, and the safe setting is in the middle. Pushing the safety to the left selects the bottom barrel for first shot. To the left selects the top barrel. Nothing better

Stan,

This was over in Illinois, a state that hasn't hosted flyer shoots for many years. Perhaps most of the boys were new to the sport.

Just yesterday I finished 300 shots over a few recent outings with a new to me VHE VR Double Trap gun with Parker Single Trigger that I got from a member friend last summer. I’d test fired only a few shots to check trigger and ejector reliability when we made that deal. Into the safe afterwards and then 4 weeks ago she moved up front as sporting clays started up hereabouts after the winter. I've shot everything from 7/8 ounce 1150 speed loads to 1-1/8 ounce factory Nitro 27's, and while switching barrels at just about every station. I wanted to thoroughly test the trigger before doing serious competitions this year. Net, I had zero double-fires or FTF the second barrel over those 300 shots. Its single trigger has crisp pulls, is fully reliable and a joy to have on quick simos with short shooting windows. No different than with my competition stack barrels.
