[QUOTE="mr ed, post: 1331151, member: 6777"] The only guns that could possibly be called defective are the pre-82 models which do not allow you to open the bolt without taking off safe. All later models should allow you to open the bolt with the safety on. I would be willing to bet that if you checked all guns in question they had the sear engagement screw adjusted. The problem they are encountering is a common one with adjustable triggers. not just on Remingtons. If you adjust the sear engagement too much, pull the trigger, then flip off the safety it will go bang. No different than if somebody does a trigger job on your 1911 and then tells you that you must pull the trigger every time you push the slide stop so you won't get hammer follow-up. Crappy workmanship by somebody that doesn't know what they are doing. All incidents would have been avoided if the 10 commandments of gun safety had been followed. [/QUOTE]
