[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 337388, member: 2736"] There are probably more Remington's out there than all of the others combined so there will be more stories about them than others because there are more of them. In truth; Any trigger that is set wrong can and will give you problems. Some times people adjust there trigger and don't under stand the workings of them and render them unsafe. Most trigger manufactures will tell you not to adjust the sear engagement because it is preset and doesn't need adjusting and warn you that if you do it may become unsafe. Most factory triggers cant be adjusted below 3 or 4 pounds with some loss of dependability and safety. For over 50 years I have seen only a handful of triggers that could not be adjusted to improve them but there is a limit how far to go. The best thing to do with that trigger is to replace it with a pre-set after market trigger and be done with it. Like Chad I prefer the Jewel over all other triggers and they will set it for what you want and it will be safe. I consider a person that can do a proper job on a trigger (Hone the sear angle and surface, place the proper spring in it to land in the middle of the trigger pull range,and set the over travel properly) an artist. and all most do is turn some screws. So my vote would be to replace it and be safe. It is to cheep and easy and can save yourself some grief. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
