Ok, so let's see so far:
1. 870 I own : barrel out of spec, was locking up so bad I couldn't cycle it while bird hunting, Remington told me to polish barrel, then finally sent a new barrel.
2. 700 I own : recall, for decades they knew it needed to be recalled, still won't admit the design of the original Walker trigger was bad, Walker even said it wasn't safe, but the new trigger was supposed to be betterer (yes I made that word up), and still recalled though
3. R51 which I'd never own: recalled immediately after release, years to rerelease the 2nd generation, and I'm seeing these don't work any better with tons of feeding issues.
Why has Remington firearms suffered so bad over the last years? In the future I just don't see that I'd buy another one, which is sad because I was raised that Remington is quality.
