Help deciding.

For hunting in warmer weather ,I find double triggers nice.However, in cold weather with heavy gloves or mitts,I much prefer the single trigger.I have two 28 gauge SXS shotguns, one double trigger and one single trigger .
 
Nice. Sounds like a sweet little gun. Would be great for upland as well. Post a few pics when you get it. Good luck and enjoy.

I have had a few CZ SxS's and they worked flawlessly.
 
I was brought up on a double trigger and I find my finger automatically chooses the right trigger for the distance of the target, I love it. Much faster than flicking a switch to select a barrel. I love how a sxs sits under my arm too when walking a hedgeline etc. too. Get in the habit of a double trigger and you'll shoot better I believe. My 2 cents.
 
It seems that most folks that are straight grip are also preferring double triggers, and while I vastly prefer the straight grip, I also like and use the SST... but I can live just fine with double triggers.

I have had a Late model CZ Bobwhite 28 ga, essentially the same gun as the Huglu I believe. It was a fine little gun and good value. It had the classic straight grip, splinter forend and double triggers which seemed perfect for this dainty little gun. A double normally has or can accept different chokes in the two barrels for two different ranges and only a double trigger allows you to instantly take advantage of that. Reliable single selective triggers have been readily available on a variety of over/unders since the 1950's-60's but on side by sides, especially at the lower end of the price scale this can be spotty. This is even more prevalent with the smaller gauges so if you aren't intimidated by double triggers go for it, after it becomes natural you'll wonder why you even considered a single trigger. Also if you can get 28" barrels go for it, they balance better and swing smoother than 26".

With the barrel selector on the tang or triggerguard, it is close to as quick as choosing which trigger to squeeze... it is just a matter of getting used to your system, which takes about as long as getting used to which trigger to use, for me at least, it is a draw.
