At this point in my life single triggers make me cringe and I don't intend to own any more with few exceptions. One of those would be a single "non selective" trigger on a gun with similar chokes in both barrels. Never owned one that I can recall, don't recall seeing that many either.

Ask same question many years ago. Answer replied by gentleman twice my age. Suppose you want a slug in the right barrel and buchshot in the left. Depends on situation of targets.

Double triggers are the best barrel selector option ever!
In the heat of the action you might forget where to put your single trigger selector switch, but with DTs, you always know what the front or back trigger is gonna do

Agreed, and they work reliably.

Cabelas has this gun re-listed today with no mention of the issues.

I like double triggers, but a single trigger can be a real advantage while shooting with gloves.
