They brought it up. Chilling to see the newer rifles go off when the safety was moved forward.

If your trigger has the grooves you are OK. Smooth triggers need to be repaired.

iirc, they were replacing the triggers on the old ones for free until last Nov.

Just ordered a Timney replacement for my son's 700. I have one from the 80's that I haven't replaced, but may replace it just for the heck of it. Great rifles. Just need a better trigger.

60 Minutes claims the X-Mark Pro is worse than the Walker trigger.

Claims are made that rifle fires without trigger or safety being touched. Color me skeptical.

I don't know this as fact but the report said 7M rifles in need of recall and repair at an estimated cost of $450M.

If true, my guess is that goes pretty far back.

HERE's the clip.

You guys should also watch the NO Korea one as well. Some ominous stuff.

My brother had a 600 that did the same thing. He had to have a gunsmith repair it.

Yeah, when you shoot someone with a Remington 700 and spend years in jail, it's obviously a trigger issue.

It's a rerun and just as unnerving as the first time I viewed it.

Yep.

The new Timney 510 is really nice. You can sometimes find one on Ebay for little over a "C" note, shipped.

I have some old Walker triggers, tuned to perfection. The rest are 510's.
