You know I had my 7400 for almost 2 decades. I would listen to people tell me how bad they were. Even on here. But It kept chuggin. I would worry about reports on the internet using slow powders, but year after year, it kept shooting. Killed countless number of deer. I always kept worrying about the jamming and the rails. I would check them to make sure they wasn't bent or trashed.
The internet has its uses, but most of the time, it just gets people in an uproar.
I am guilty of it more than anyone. Right now, I own a 2010 tundra. There is all this talk about AIP (induction pump) going bad and it costs 3K and not covered. Part of me says don't worry. I have a 99 roadking, and I got myself in a tizzy over the cam bearing falling apart. All these stories on the internet. 45K miles and I worried to death about nothing. Could it happen? You bet.
Take the internet for what its worth.
