I've got a 16ga sxs with a proof date of 1917. If the safety is in the rear position, both triggers are locked. If you push the safety up one notch to the intermediate position, you can only pull the rear trigger, front is locked. On pulling the rear trigger, the safety jumps up to the forward position and you can then pull the front trigger.

If you push the safety all the way forward to start with, it operates a normal safety, both triggers are unlocked and you can fire the barrels in any order. It's not an auto safety btw.
