Two dozen deaths, more than 100 injuries linked to Model 700 rifle
SHOULD THE REMINGTON 700 RIFFLE, BE RECALLED?
"I watched a investagation on CNBC, about the 700 Riffle. They say, for over 50 years this gun has been messed up. It seems to go off for no reason at all."

The Remington Arms Company has wrestled for decades with safety concerns involving its signature product, the model 700 rifle. |
Remington insists its rifle is safe and free of any defect, though internal documents obtained by CNBC indicate the company has wrestled with concerns over the gun’s safety for some 60 years. The documents reveal that on at least two occasions, the company considered – and then decided against – a modification of the original trigger design intended to eliminate inadvertent discharges. One of those proposed fixes would have cost Remington 5.5 cents per gun, according to the company’s own calculations.
{You can make up your own mind about this problem, I just wanted to pass the information on to you. In hopes that it keeps you and your family safe. Personally I feel that it's a piece of crap and even if you don't point it at anybody who wants their gun going off while pointing it at the ground even or at least, before you pull the trigger?"
