Remington 700 recall...

[icallshotgun88]

I checked their website and found there was a recall for the Remington 700...
I guess they used some sort of adhesive or glue in the trigger system that goes bad and causes the gun to be fired without anyone pulling the trigger..

There are two options to remedy this..

1. Find a local Remington authorized repair shop where they will replace the trigger free of charge

2. Mail your rifle in for them to replace the trigger

This thread wasn't really to inform you, but rather to ask if anyone has sent in their rifle to Remington.
How long did you have to wait till you got it back?
Was it replaced with a similar trigger or a better one?
Did you ever experience the problem in the first place?
Wondering if I should just forget about getting it replaced, since I haven't experienced the problem yet...
Maybe even shop around for a nicer trigger and replace it myself..

...anyone?

I would not wait for my rifle to accidentally discharge before fixing a known problem.

If someone gets injured (or heaven forbid killed) by your negligence, plaintiff's attorney WILL find out during discovery about your failure to address this problem. Then you will be up shit creek without a paddle.

And that's just the civil tort side of the legal equation. Criminal charges might not be out of the question depending on your local prosecutor's mood.

If you can't wait, buy a reputable aftermarket trigger and dump the Remington one.

There's a three page thread already running, it's still on the first page of this forum. All your questions are answered in that thread.

lots of information in the other remington recall threads, including some feedback on wait times for those that sent it in.

I registered with Remington and I just received an empty box without any information. they make a shitty trigger and then they expect you to pay to return the damn thing to them. The hell with that, I'm saving the cost of shipping and getting a Timney. Who knows what their going to replace the shitty trigger with; another piece of shit!!!
