You probably mean 'selector'. It's a toggle switch on a double barreled shotgun that allows a shooter to choose which barrel fires first. This is especially handy when hunting, because you can select a barrel that corresponds with your distance to target using two different chokes. Chokes are constrictions at the end of the barrels that determine the grouping of the shot--and therefore their effective range--so having two different settings in one gun allows you to have two different ranges available with the switch of a button.
