On some of the Miller Single Triggers the "MILLER" stamp is out of sight up inside the lower tang of the trigger or floor plate. That one looks like a Parker single trigger.

Yup... Parker single trigger. With the late style safety slide I would guess its the later two screw single trigger..

I once had a Parker with early single screw SST that somebody had put a second dummy screw in to make it look like the two screw model, which is reputed to be more reliable. I had no problem with the trigger,however its irritating the length some people will go to fake things.

Thank you gentlemen; here's the other side. Who designed the Parker SST?
Vic Venters' recent article about the HOT in Shooting Sportsman led to discussions on other Forums. AND this trigger with the odd nubin that no one could identify

Drew , see The Parker Story. There is quite a bit written about the Parker SST there. Designed within Parker, unlike Fox or some other makers.
There were many attempts at perfecting a single trigger that would not double. Some would say that they are still not perfected but I have had no trouble with single triggers in my personal experience. To me, the right side of a Parker SST looks like a Miller, but the left side always looks different. The Miller trigger is wider and not as sculptured, but then I have only seen maybe a dozen or so Miller installations, unlike people in Penn and the NE who have likely seen many many more and all the variances. Some people, and Don Kaas is a proponent of them, love Millers above all other triggers. I've not shot a Miller, I wouldn't know. Last edited by Bruce Day; 02-19-2010 at 03:27 PM.. |

I have some Millers on Parkers, all the early selective model, and they all work. My 12 gauge Skeeter has a non selective factory installed Miller and it works also.

Designer of Parker Single Trigger
Herman (?) Shula was a German jeweler who designed the second model Parker single trigger. He was Babe DelGrego's grandfather.
Miller's are usually stamped Miller, but the stamp may be obscure. A very slightly modified Miller design is used on the K32. Best, Austin |
