Two triggers and a straight stock for me, though I do like and shoot an open semi-pistol grip or Prince of Wales grip fine.

Thanks for all the replies. It's good to see that there are some others who prefer the PG-DT setup.

I am 6 ft 5 inches tall with fairly long arms. Most of the old guns were made for someone not that tall. I shoot right handed and find that pistol grip stocks are easier to hold since I don't have to cant my right wrist as much to grip the stock as I must with straight grips.

Straight grips were standard on matchlocks. Obviously that's the sort of grip that a proper gun should have.

count me as another who much prefers pistol grip and double triggers. I don't own much, but every one is in that configuration.
