"Originally Posted By: Burrard"??? Jack, I hope that's something the system did . . . unless maybe you're channeling Burrard. And I've never thought of you as a medium . . . maybe more like a rare.

I got the involuntary pull thing the first time, thanks. And of course it's not either a pro or a con, comparing one ST to another, since they all work that way. And that still leaves the inertia triggers with the same disadvantages, whether you compare them to mechanical ST's or to DT's.

As for the "advantage" of a ST in cold weather . . . not necessarily. I have a Parker Repro, single mechanical trigger, through which I've run a few flats of shells. It has functioned flawlessly for me when I'm either shooting barehanded or with a thin leather shooting glove. However, it has doubled twice on me when I've worn a heavier, insulated glove (cold weather skeet, not hunting). Maybe the reduced "feel" from that heavier glove caused me to give it an extra involuntary pull, but for whatever reason, it certainly hasn't been an advantage over DT's in cold weather. And I've had the same thing happen with other ST's while wearing insulated gloves.
