Any gun that is made with plastic as part of the receiver............... Come on. What was Remington thinking?
And then to press fit a barrel that is required to control 65,000 PSI? An accident waiting to happen!
I would be willing to bet that once these things have been around for 10 or 15 years that we will start hearing bad stories of barrels coming loose or shooting off from the receivers.
Well the bolt lockup in the barrel will control that PSI but the action isn't the smoothest even made of the material it is made of. I understand they are now offering "Metal" recievers for 2005.
