    I had a friend(Pawnee Josh) adjust the trigger on a new 7mm Mag and there was so much thread locker he couldn't break the adjustment screw free. He kept trying and finally it broke loose.He adjusted it to about 3lbs and it has had about 50 rounds through it with no problem. I wonder if this is the issue they are talking about.

    No that's not the problem, those adjustment screws are often locked solid.

    Answer ----Either follow the recall procedure or get the trigger replaced by a competent gunsmith.

    My gut feeling ---that's the only answer this thread should give, as any comments here might need to "hold water" in a court of law as this forum is read worldwide.

    Be a bit of a stretch for a public forum to be held accountable wouldn't it?

    My uneducated guess is its a placebo tech term for " we just wanna check your trigger sear engagement and ancillary adjustments so you can't blame us when you have an accidental discharge"

    Bugger, my first ever firearm and it gets recalled within a month. However this 40% off talk might come in handy!
