I loved my Valmet system and would take either my double trigger receiver or my single selective trigger receiver and the following:

12/12 26" 3"mag with choke tubes

12/9,3x74r or 12/30-06 with scope and Valmet QD mount

9,3/9,3 with scope and QD

30-06/30-06 with scope and QD

All performed well, and I only had one gun permit to aquire...saved me a bunch of $$ in Tanzania! The game scouts thought the 9,3 was a 375 FM, and I did nothing to educate them.

Why the SS trigger??? When hunting birds of opportunity while plains game hunting I would switch the selector to the shotgun barrel. In my excitement at the rise of sandgrouse or Francolin I would occasionaly launch a 9,3 or '06 round with the double trigger receiver. Using the SS trigger receiver set to fire the shotgun first remedied all that.

I also very much like my cape gun/sxs shotgun two barrel set.

I do envy those here who have DR/Shotgun two barrel sets. My ultimate gun would be a big bore DR with sxs shotgun barrels and a cape gun set with a medium bore rifle barrel...QD mounts and appropriate scopes on the DR and cape gun.
