Remington 700 PSS

What does it stand for? I have seen 3 different translations on the internet:

Police Sharp Shooter

Police Sniper Special

Police Service Special

Are any of these even correct, or is it yet another one? Thanks!

If this were a poll, then I'd vote for "Police Sharp Shooter", just because I tend to trust www.snipercountry.com as a reference.

I admit my trolling on this one, no takers when you announce your intentions I see. (makin mental notes). I'm just not a big fan of Remington rifles, I have heard too many horror stories on their QC and customer service of late.

Please Shoot Straight

Probably Shoots [like] Shyte

Police Say "Sorry" (after that errant shot)

Pisspoor Sorry System

Hey I like Remingtons, I have two "normal" 700s, but their customer service, attitude, and erratic grouping of their rifles (some hit dimes, some group like a shotgun) makes me wanna take the piss outta them once in awhile.

Depends, on who you talk to. Some of the folks that received PSS's w/ QC issues might agree.

I fortunately, got a shooter.
