All I can say is whoever has one for any period of time and never had a problem with theirs is truly a lucky person and should plan on staying in Vegas for a week. I am usually a little slow in finding out things when it comes to gun manufacturers and gave Remington 3 tries on three different 742,7400' s to get it right and they didn' t. Can' t believe the state of CA has this under the assault weapon category(is this true?) its a single shot rifle.
