My Parker SBT had what I would consider a hair trigger. I was kinda ok with it until I got my Knick and Fox and then I found the Parker trigger disconcerting. I sent it to Dennis Potter and he took care of it but I don’t know what his current work load is.

John ,it has been years ago , I had a DHE 28 Gauge with a Parker Single select trigger that wasn't working correctly although at the moment I just don't recall exactly what was going on with it ,none the less I contacted Dan May at Miller Trigger and sent the gun up to him and when it came home it functioned perfectly ! The contact I still have for him is (315-216-6240 ) ! As I said it has been quite a while hopefully this is still a functioning business and a working phone number He was a Fine Gentleman to do business with ! All the best getting her fixed !

I have seen this on doubles and as stated above, it is generally dirt or a worn or broken sear surface. Wear general comes on gradually. If it started suddenly, it is either something thatwas deposited quickly or a chipped or broken part. Either wear or crap laying down general comes on slowly in my experience. It may start failing to hold cock suddenly, but would generally give a lot of warning by getting lighter and sloppier over a period of time. Try a good soaking cleaning first maybe. If mechanical, anything that is working but not correctly can generally be repaired by a competent gunsmith. A sear and notch are pretty simple but must be shaped carefully.

I started to ask you how you could tell if it were 8 or 8 1/2 or 9 or 7 1/2 if it were flattened
