Buy a Savage...
Accurate, lower priced, and it doesn't go off when you don't want it too... |

Any of you guys have old 700's you want to get rid of, send them to me for proper disposal.
I wonder if I could get tax-exempted if I started a home for abandoned and unwanted pre-1979 700's?

I've recently started seeing them advertise their channel, on other channels.
Tells you something. |

Quoted:
Did you pull the trigger just prior to flipping the rifle off safe?
No, what would the purpose be of pulling the trigger prior to taking it off "SAFE"?? Please keep your logic out of this, you happen to be posting on ARFCOM. You are correct. This was a Dan Rather story on CBS. It was a mother in Wyoming I think that killed her son. Disregard the 1st rule of gun safety (Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction) at the risk of your life or someone elses. |

It was a very real problem.
My Remington 600 fired once at the range when I released the safety. Finger was not on the trigger. Sent it back to the factory; they fixed it. (Or said they did.) I thought they redesigned the system, but this article alleges they did not. If the article is correct, then this is a major fiasco, like Ford and the Pinto. If the article is incorrect, then this is shameful defamation. |

Sometimes, if they get dirty, pulling the trigger while it's on safe will move the sear bar out from under the sear and it will go boom when it's taken off safe. |
