Some of these firearms discharge without the trigger being pulled. Check to see if you are on the list.



I guess guns can kill people

So is this all model 700 owners? And is this official? The web page looks like a lawyer's phishing for class action vs something official...

From my understanding the issue occurs when closing or possibly opening the bolt. Sucks that they are recalling all 700s, the turn around time will be horrendous for sure, this goes back to NEVER POINTING A GUN AT A SOMETHING YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO DESTROY!! I wont be returning any of mine, all of them have had the triggers reworked or replaced.

We sent one back on the previous recall. It took about 4-5 months to get the gun back. Rather than send it back, I'd possibly buy a new trigger. Following Scott's advice above is NEVER bad (and always prudent)

According to this: http://xmprecall.remington.com/pdfs/xmprecall-notice.pdf

I have a ribbed trigger and not subject to a recall. Not really surprised it feels like I have a 10lb trigger.

I got the website in an email from Remington.

None of my 700's have more than a passing resemblance to a factory trigger anymore and I wouldn't let the pipe fitters at Remington touch one of my rifles with a 20 foot pole. Factory rifles are just organ donors anyway though.
