Is it the double/single trigger version? I always thought those were neat.

#6 is currently for sale at CSMC, IIRC.
I've seen #10 on social media, somewhere.
I've owned two first year guns, both mid-four figures, both with Twin-Single Triggers and and the stepped Non-Crossfire vented rib. As Ted says, the Twin-Single triggers are very cool, and were a step towards figuring out the single Selective trigger that's all but standard on modern two-barrel guns.
I can't recall what the "P" in the serial number means...I'll try to find out.
Is this gun for sale somewhere?

The "P" is French for Piege meaning trap. I believe some had a "C" meaning Chasse meaning for field or hunting.

Friend has a 101 that we think was made for the European market with double triggers like that. The are the double/single trigger version. The front trigger is very straight like the one pictured here, making it hard to reach. I have average size hands and it feels uncomfortable to me.

This is true for later models, and certainly the Fabrique Nationale marked guns, but I'm not sure about early ones.
Looking at the stock (not high, like my 1931 guns were) and lacking the the Non-Crossfire vent rib, I'm a little skeptical.
On later guns, the "C", "T", or "P" was usually way up under the head of the toplever, often hard to see...that doesn't mean the "P" on this one doesn't indicate trap, because if there's one thing that's certain: there are all sorts of Superposeds out there that don't follow "the rules."

Like many of their offerings, CSMC is very, very proud of this one.
I see at least a decade, if not two, of it sitting at that price. Not considering the low serial number, which, is a bit irrelevant compared to the guns many warts, I’d be happy to get $1-1.5K for it.
Bet I’m not alone, either.
Best, Ted
