I got one, local guy has no clue. He did a top latch return spring but can't return trigger to prior single trigger, mechanincal status. Any idea who may be able to deal with this?

I can't log in except via my old iPad. My email is eepink@icloud .com. Prefer to deal that way as this website prohibits my use of my new iPad Pro. G'rrr.

Help!!!

Dan May at Classic Stocks/Miller Single Trigger is very good with repairing various types of singles. He woukd be a good choice. But he is in upstate NY.

Remington Arms Co. never catalogued a single trigger for their Remington Hammerless Doubles, but they had a notebook full of Patents and were certainly experimenting with them. Also there were several after market single triggers being offered back in the day -- Fulford, Lancaster, etc. and in later years Miller, so it could be quite the challenge for any trigger man.

What Dave said

Nov. 17, 1900 Sporting Life
http://library.la84.org/SportsLibrary/SportingLife/1900/VOL_36_NO_09/SL3609014.pdf
“E. H. Tripp, the Indianapolis trap shot, tells a "hard luck" poker story- He was sitting in a quiet game with a few of the trap shots one night at St. Louis. Everything had gone the other way with him, and the boys had been "doing something."
At last he got a handful of aces in the deal, and he said to himself, -“Here is where I get even." He started to bluff the others, but just at that moment Colonel Courtney, who up to that time had been a quiet onlooker, began to tell about a new Remington hanmerless gun that had but one trigger to pull both barrels. He got the other fellows so interested in that gun that they forgot all about the poker game, and Tripp got but five measly chips out of his four aces.”

“Rolla Heikes is now working his new single trigger Remington hammerless gun…”

Robert Chambers' list of early single trigger patents

FWIW -- Here are the Philadelphia Single Trigger Co. ads from December 15, 1906 --



and February 9, 1907 --



issues of The American Field which can no longer be seen because of Photobucket's attempted extortion.

January 2, 1904 "The American Field" courtesy of David Noreen.
E.D. Fulford won the 1898 GAH at Live Birds using a Remington 1894.



The Lancaster Arms Co. manufactured firearms and accessories, most notably the "Infallible Single Trigger." The company was the brainchild of Alfred Harvey Worrest, inventor of the "Infallible." Worrest obtained his first patent in 1906 and kept perfecting the device through patents issued in 1912.
