Thread: Remington in a Spot of Bother

And give Timney or similar some royalties and copy their trigger. The basic design of that action hasn't really changed since its inception. Rifles need to move with the times these days and Remington have been sitting on their hands for too long in my opinion.

you pretty much just described a Forbes....
