RE: WOW!... Just WOW!
I am not sure what to think of Mr. Bridges' report. Were this a court room.. the information he has is called hearsay. IE: A Canadian who wishes to remain anonymous reports (to Mr. Bridges)his rifle failed. Mr. Brisdges reports this person's events. And compares them to his own. Other then this statement, we are to take all of this at their word.
I don't wish to seem unsympathetic to the report of the rifle failing. If it did, and someone was injured.. to me that is a tragic event. To portray the Savage as dangerous based on lack of expert testimony and hearsay.. it does not work for me.
Like Sabotloader said, any rifle can fail if misused. Maybe even for nothing the shooter did to create the failure. Its can happen no matter what we shoot. Anything can break. Lets hope these four events mentioned by Mr. Bridges is all there will be in the thousands of Savage rifles sold. What was ever determined by experts as the reason Mr. Bridge's Savage failed and blew up?
