Everything remington has made in the last five years is crooked. Ever sincerobots andmachines started making most of their guns.... I guess their tooling is jacked up.Their QC has gone absolutely in the crapper. If you doubt this, just pick up one of their new 1100s that now sell for over $1000 and look down the rib... I think I've seen one that might have been almost straight... were the beads not out of alignment anyway... most ribs are running from right in the rear to left in the front and are out a good 1/8"... sure it doesn't make a difference but when I'm paying $1000 I don't want to crooked f-in rib! Makes you wonder what else made it past QC checks....How about their new state of the art 105 CTi's that they never made enough of to really hit the stores? They brought two of them tothe DU outdoorsevent in Virginia the year they came out and I got to test fire them.... both of them were SINGLE SHOTS! Now there has been a recall and I haven't seen one come through our store in over 8 months. Heck even a couple of the 870s are coming out with problems.... how do you mess up an 870? Its like screwing up an anvil!
