With a double trigger O/U, which trigger is normally for the top barrel, or all models different?

But, any gun's triggers can most often be set up as the owner wished....o/u or sxs.

I prefer single triggers an side by side.
Re: Over/Under Shotgun Question
You want the front trigger to fire the bottom barrel. You want to fire the bottom barrel first because the bottom barrel is more in line with the stock and the recoil from it will be directed more back to the shoulder with less muzzle rise thus allowing for a faster follow up shot with the top barrel. This is all splitting hairs but under normal circumstances the bottom barrel is fired first followed by the top barrel. The first trigger pulled is the front trigger followed by the back trigger. Bottom barrel = front trigger, top barrel = back trigger.With a double trigger O/U, which trigger is normally for the top barrel, or all models different?

I love double trigger's and don't have one anymore. On my SxS's, the right barrel fire's first and the left next. Tightest choke last. Have no idea how that would work on an O/U with choke tubes? You guy's with gun's with choke tubes really stuck yourselves in the butt. Now you tell the storm and strife you need a new gun with I/C - Mod ,she'll just tell you to change the tubes!

I don't need no stinking choke tubes. I just buy another gun.
The interchangeable chokeytube has created a generation of incessant choke changers. They change chokes at every field to get the perfect choke.
