What exactly was wrong with Remshit that it had to be recalled?

>>31936078
gun could go off without pulling the trigger
some could go off when touching the safety

Is this the one about someone shooting their kid while they were riding horseback to a hunting spot and the parent had a round chambered?

How? What exactly was wrong with the safety?

A friend of mine has one that should be recalled but he had a professional trigger job done to it and it's got a nice crisp pull. He won't send it in because he figures he'll get a shitty trigger and Remington isn't going to refund him for having to get the trigger redone.

Remington’s investigation determined that some XMP triggers might have excess bonding agent used in the assembly process, which could cause an unintentional discharge. Therefore, Remington is recalling ALL affected products to fully inspect and clean the XMP triggers with a specialized process. Remington has advised customers to immediately cease use of recalled rifles and return them to Remington free of charge. The rifles will be inspected, specialty cleaned, tested, and returned as soon as possible. Do not attempt to diagnose or repair recalled rifles. Remington established a dedicated website and toll-free hotline to help consumers determine whether their Model 700 or Model Seven rifle(s) are subject to recall:

cept this time the safety could also trip the sear when flicked on/off

How would excess bonding agent cause the safety to trip the sear? I know Remington is a shitty company that makes shitty products, but you'd have to be pants on head retarded to fuck up that bad.

eh the 887 recall was worse
with the 700s the trigger worked
the 887 would go click when you pulled the trigger cause of light primer strikes
it could slamfire when your racked it
not the fun slamfire either. the completely unexpected nothings touching the trigger slamfire

You deserved it for falling for the meme.

It's sad that America's oldest firearms company has been reduced to this. Where did they go wrong? Cerberus, or before that?

well the 700 triggers been flawed from the get go since they didnt want to spend a few more cents on the fix

>>31936344
They were always shit. The only reason the 700 became popular is because fudds have fond childhood memories of hunting with it with grampa. Meanwhile, Winchester makes a much better rifle.
