[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 552043, member: 30902"] No one has ever been able to make an M 700 fire as claimed if they were set up within factory specs and properly maintained. When you try to tune things out of spec and don't prperly maintain them you can't blame the manufacturer. With the early model 700's there absolutely was an issue with some firing when the safety was disengaged. Those rifles were recalled and prepaired and the safety mechanism was redesigned and replaced circa 73-75. Not a single court case has been won suing over the more recent (last twenty years) claims about unintended firings. Yep is you screw with something enough you can screw it up. As for the M-24, I have more than 20,000 rounds through M-24's and never had nor did I ever see that problem. All of the triggers on my 700's have always been set at 1.5lbs or less as well. There are more than 2 million M700's and M721's in the US alone and even more plaintiff lawyers would would be more than happy to retire over a class action suit against remington if there were any truth to the claims.
