I'd like to know.

Close. I had one of the Rem 700s that had issues. Really thought it was BS but was at the range and took it off safe and it went off. Now I was behind the gun and it was pointed down range (even hit paper with it) but I swear to you my finger was not on the trigger. Scared the heck out of me because I have 2 other 700's that my 2 underage boys were hunting with at the time. Midway USA got an order for 3 timneys from my Iphone before I even left the range.
