Gift from on high or scourge of mankind ??

I know nothing. I read Macintosh and searched here.
I still know nothing. I'd be interested in hearing your learned opinions.
Thank you.

Neither - LEFT UNMOLESTED, one of the 2 or 3 most ingenious and reliable single triggers. IMHO other utterly reliables are the Boss, Winchester M21 and, for my money, the absolute best, the Miller. Again, the key words are LEFT UNMOLESTED (either by ham-handed gunsmiths or trap 'weasels' who simply can't wait to work on them to find their "sweet spot". The big problem with a malfunctioning Kautzky is finding anyone to work on them anymore that knows what they're doing. A beautiful little AE 20 that I bought years ago had one that was trashed so bad that with the right barrel selected, the gun went off when I took the safety off. When I had the left barrel selected, the gun went off when I closed it!! I cut a deal with the seller to include solving the problem and had the cost of repair taken off the price of the gun. I liked it so much, I bought it then turned right around and had double triggers put back in it. ( It's still one of my favorite guns).
