Question #1 asked about the originality of single triggers on V grade Parkers. Answer: Hundreds of Parker V grade skeet and trap guns were made with single triggers as well as more than a few field guns. Question #2 was about the testing of a single trigger without live firing. Answer: One of the main malfunctions of a Parker single trigger is doubling. Testing for doubling involves live fire with low power and high power ammunition, preferably more than a few shots with each. My experience with doubling in Parker shotguns is that sometimes, a Parker will double no more than every twenty five or a hundred shots, a sign of bad things to come. Test fire before buying if the price is not a solid bargain.

I thought Mike was talking about his Trojan… Mike?
