Well, unbeknownst to her or anyone else, my grandfather had decided that if anyone ever stole it they should pay at least SOME price, and since most folks pull the forward trigger first, then the rear trigger on a double, he had rigged it so if you pulled the rear trigger then the front everything went normally, but if you pulled the front trigger first you got both barrels at once.

Oooops!...
Yes, a lot of good select trigger shotguns have that ability. And yes...... I got caught by a double gun (12ga.) that did the exact same thing. Hard on a 14 year old shoulder......
