I've owned several of them and only kept the ones with single triggers. I cut my fingers a lot with the double triggers. My twenty gauge ST has had thousands of rounds through it with out any problems. I have a friend who doesn't take very good care of his 28 ga Repro ST and he has dragged it through the mud and shot thousands more rounds than me - no problems. I own originals and repros I love them both. I think the repros are a great value.
