Although selective triggers would be better the double triggers are quite natural when it comes to follow up shots. But come on, a double is Elmer Fudd’s gun or what farmers shot rock salt at trespassers with right? Plus I was concerned about fumbling with two triggers or dealing with lopsided recoil. The trap shots at my sportsman’s club are pretty informal and about 90% of the participants use Remington 11-87′s. It wasn’t because it wasn’t a true trap gun. To be honest I wasn’t really all that excited about the double barrel at first. It was quite a surprise really, a testament to Stevens quality from the 1950′s. 9 and it was back in business and in good working order. The finish on the stock was completely shot but the there was only some minor rust on the barrels with only some very minor pitting in one small spot. So when I rescued it from my dad’s basement I was a little concerned if it would actually work. It saw little (if any to be honest) maintenance. This particular shotgun sat for decades right next to my grandparents back door to protect the garden, the chicken coop, or the home from two or four legged thieves.
