 Double sxs  Black and Blue 
		
		
		I have a double barrel with the double triggers that is causing my ring finger on my trigger hand to turn black and blue.  When I reach for the front trigger my ring finger is against the trigger guard and takes a beating during recoil.   
	What do you think? is this a design issue or a fitting issue? It has no recoil pad and I have thought about adding one to see if it helps. The problem is most noticable when using heavy loads. When using the lighter loads earlier in the season I did not notice it, I picked up some hotter shell's and it has cause my finger to turn purple from first knuckle to the third. The easy choice is to not shoot heavy loads, opinions?  | 
		
 Black and blue 
		
		
		This is a problem that 2 trigger guns have always had. They used to make a rubber bumper type of thing to put on the trigger guard. Heck I have a single trigger Beretta SxS that does the same thing to me...When I shoot it...which is now just about never. Thing really kicks:rolleyes: Guess I'm a wimp

 Change in shells 
		
		
		Skeet I switched from the 3 3/4 drams To the 3 1/4  also tapped a cotton ball to the back of the trigger guard.  I went back out today pheasant hunting with no ill effects.  Looks like the lighter loads are the ticket with this scattergun.

 I was thinking of a small piece of neoprene glued to the guard.

 It depends 
		
		
		When I encountered the same problem with a dual trigger shotgun, I corrected it by trading the gun on a single trigger shotgun.  That corrected the problem.  All the best...

 All my SxSs have DTs.  It is a stock fitting problem if the guard is hitting your fringers.  I shoot SxSs with English grips, Ptince of Wales and pistol grips.  When shooting heavy waterfowl loads in  an English straight grip 12 I will occassionly get a sore finger.  Can't complain though, because it has to be a good day with lotsa of shooting and if I were a better shot wouldn't have to shoot that much.
