    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    Now you just went and got @Toby in trouble GM, actually it reminds me of my old comments regarding remington rifles and the 270 and what do I have now? a remington and it is a 270 and you know what there is nothing wrong with them but in saying that the only decent centerfire I have ever had before getting the remington was a marlin

    Message from Gunworks regarding the Remington recall......

    We are the South Island agents for the REMINGTON RECALL

    See if your Model 700™ or Model Seven™ Rifle is affected Remington Recall

    You must then type in your rifle serial number, you will then be asked what country you are in, select New Zealand, this will then refer you to the New Zealand Remington Recall website. Remington NZ will then send you a PDF form to fill out and they will contact you when your trigger replacement is available

    If you are in the South Island you will then be referred to us, however
    you must do this process first.


    Note : If your trigger has this mark (as per the picture) on the bolt release then your trigger has already been replaced

    Thanks @cambo I have received no notification from Remy after following all instructions. But are happy with my rifle and seen a nick in the area you mentioned so that will do me. Wasn't quite centre but I'm not complaining.

    My one does not have that dot punch mark so my trigger has not been replaced, it has not given me any trouble in the 100 rounds I have put through it so far so I might just keep using it till I can upgrade the trigger to a timney one.

    Just found out mine is part of the recall which is a piss off, emailed the NZ distributor with no reply as i have no idea who the north island agent is. Seen gun works suppressor deal and am wondering if they would be able to do mine, as i like the look of there Duralium suppressor??! Any might just put a Timney in if it takes to long to sort its self out. I have probably put 200 rnds through it without fault, so not sure what the problem is

    I have never experienced a problem with mine either Dawg. I am happy to just wait for the next move by Remington and use it in the men time if it is the right choice rifle for the day.

    I didn't either, but like I said my trigger has given me no issues so far but I will be saving for a timney trigger to replace the factory one at some stage but not straight away.

    Rifle basics are good triggers... As are timneys.. To say one is better than the other is like the Holden salesman telling you Fords arnt as good as the cars he has for sale. Tomarrrto, tomaaaaaaato...
