Thread: Remington Under Fire on CNCB

Its the same ole news but rehashed again. Each rifle sent back to Remington was not able to re perform the "said" malfunction in the hands of Remington staff and independent assessors.

In most cases, the owners had not maintained trigger groups or had modified triggers in place. Nor could mis-use be ruled out in most of the cases. As some of the incidents had fatalities involved it reinforces the fact that the safety is between the brain. No one would have died if rifles were not pointed at other people in the first place. Sad but it seems easy to blame the manufacturer.

However there is enough evidence to suggest that the older triggers did have some flaw if dirt and grime got in the connector and this could be reason for some of the incidents where triggers malfunctioned that had not been modified in anyway.

Reinforces the "don't point rifle at anything you are not willing to destroy" rule.

Cheers.
