[QUOTE="Kennibear, post: 946773, member: 51650"] Gentlemen; Before we cast anymore stones at one another we should assume none to be fools. A simple first echelon safety check of the trigger will tell you if there is a problem. My understanding is the potting compound may have been done sloppy. A good look with a magnifying glass and flashlight should help. And I believe Lefty is correct that if there was a problem it should show up in a couple hundred rounds. Not would but should. Ideally returning the rifle to Remington is preferred but not all of the triggers have failed, only some. Check it out Lefty. Not much to a trigger. A buger of epoxy should be easy to spot. If the trigger passes a first echelon, holds 3lbs, and has a decent engagement then it is safe. Put a caliper from the front of the trigger and the back of the trigger guard and measure the distance to let off. Compare to a known trigger. No goop, 3lbs and sufficient travel means safe for now. What do you think Remington is doing? KB [/QUOTE]
