And that's out of how many? "Hundreds" out of a couple thousand is a lot, but "hundreds" out of 100,000 is nothing. Human nature means that only unhappy people post. Worse, they like to spread their unhappiness around, and post the same stories on many different sites. Those who are happy have no reason to post anything. For this reason it gives a very negatively-biased view of any product that may in fact have decent reliablity. Unless you work at a gun shop or a range, it's nearly impossible to get real, unbiased information.Have you not read the hundreds upon hundreds of reports that are out on the newer Remington rifles and the serious quality issues they have been having?
