I don’t own a 700, but with its history and the vast number of owners it has, I’m guessing this is a lawyer promulgated action resulting form lawsuits where odd circumstances and circumstantial evidence was contorted to indicate Remington screwed up somehow.
Bolt action rifle with an accompanying history of successful use and other knowledge and technology insertion of bolt action rifles going back much farther. To me, I’d use this as an opportunity to buy one on sale somewhere.
“where odd circumstances and circumstantial evidence was contorted to indicate Remington screwed up somehow.”
Nope. Rifles straight off the line fire when closing the bolt or releasing the safety.
There was a prior recall noted on FR, I sent in my rifles in the provided mailers and got them back in two months. Pain but over and done with now.
I wonder what they intend to do with those on the shelves? Do the dealers return them or do they put that onto the buyers. How do you know if the firearm you buy has an alleged defective trigger? I guess one should keep their documentation about having had it fixed in case they wish to sell them later.
Of course this happened just before my boating accident last month wherein my firearms went down with the boat. I luckily survived my journey to the Mariannas Trench area.
