Routine can be the the bain to almost anyones existence. I did it last weekend while shooting sporting clays. I was shooting a new gun and trying to get used to that. On the second station the second bird on a report pair came out broken. After clearing the trap, i had forgotten that i had already fired the right barrel. I ended up trying to pull the front trigger again. It wont be the last time.

In regards to SSTs, a lot of vintage doubles have the barrel selector in an awkward or downright unsafe location. It makes you wonder how many people actually use the selector in the field on the fly. I have always said that there is no more convenient selector than simply moving your finger back to the othet trigger.
