FYI did you know that the "I" in FYI stands for "information" of which your post is severely lacking?

I wonder what it's going to cover. I've got a feeling it's going to focus on the growing number of lawsuits over accidental discharges from the trigger system. I saw something similar a few months ago. I wonder if it's the same thing.

I watched a few minutes of it and the trigger/safety system is all they were talking about. I don't know if the whole thing was like that but everything I saw was cut from the whole "This is what Remington DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW!!!!!!!" cloth with the highlighted quotes from internal memos deal and the interviewing the families who have lost loved ones thing.

So a nice little anti-gun piece to fill time. Maybe next they can do an hour on exploding Glocks and follow it up with the good ol' fashioned stumping for an assault rifle ban.

Just talked about the safety mechanism. Didn't focus around lawsuits. They even talked to the guy that came up with the Model 700 and how he tried to get them to change the safety.
