Hi guys, I walked into a conversation at work a few weeks ago about an issue with the model 700 trigger assembly. They were saying there have been allot of accidental discharges and many lawsuits "covered" up by Remington. Well over the weekend I was surfing channels and I believe it was on msnbc channel, there was a long story about this topic. They say there is indeed an issue, and Remington will not issue a recall, there were a bunch of people saying that when the saftey is flipped off the gun will discharge. There was a stack of paperwork of complaints and Remington will not give an opinion on this. When I was on my way back home from deer hunting I stopped at my local gunsmith and he was aware of the program on tv and he pretty much laughed me out of the store, he claims there is nothing wrong, and all but said I am an idiot for believing in the bias news channels. Now I am a little concerned what is true, have you guys any opinions on this or first have knowledge of this potential issue.. I have had a model 700 in a .270 caliber that has been my whitetail rig for over 20 years and it has performed flawlessly.
