[QUOTE="mtwarych, post: 865772, member: 70595"] I have heard but not seen for myself that dust, grit and grime can cause the safety to cause such a problem. Maybe something is caught in the mechanism. Worth a look and a wipedown. The rifle I am speaking of was a rem700 7mmrm that the owner finally did a major clean and lube and his rifle quit "firing" when the safety was moved to the fire position. You never know. [/QUOTE]
