I have much less experience with double triggers than most people on this forum I'm sure. When shooting one of my DT guns for skeet or clays, and when I've just switched over, I'll occasionally forget about that second trigger and look like an idiot. My buddy calls them PhD guns "Pull Here Dummy"

When I first got into shooting doubles, I hated double triggers. I was so used to that single trigger and was full of angst when thinking of using double triggers! After a few rounds of clays the few synapses that still worked took over and since then it’s been easy peasy!! I have some single trigger Parkers but that’s because I really liked the guns. Just takes a little practice and your brain will go to auto-pilot.

I would love to find a double trigger O/U sporting clays gun. Choke selector!

Andy, shoot the SxS guns. They’ll break just as many birds as an O/U.

Not in my hands. Yet! Plus I try to give all my guns some love and spread myself around.

I handled a few super birds at the Southern. Meh is a good description. It seemed way overpriced and a not particularly attractive gun. A M21 with vent rib would be far better and a classic gun to boot. Plus, the M21 if bought at a reasonable price is a good investment. I can’t imagine getting one’s money back on a super bird.

Just look for an EARLY Browning Superposed, with the double/single trigger. You'll have both bases covered.

Holy crap. Good idea.

Double trigger Browning Superposeds are hard to find. They are the solution to the over under double trigger problem. Double single trigger Supers are the best.
