[QUOTE="Brad615, post: 889795, member: 46747"] I was hunting this past sunday 12/8/13 with a rem 700 7mm rm & as a deer came out (small deer that i didnt intend to shoot) I moved my safety from safe to fire position just in case a bigger deer followed & my gun went off!!! Luckily i have always practiced gun safety & the gun was pointed in a safe position. I have heard this happening to other guys but was a first for me. I was a little rattled to say the least, thank god no one was hurt or even killed!! This was the mark x pro trigger & I say was because the second i got home a timney was purchased, looking forward to the install. My problem is with remington! & I'm a huge remington fan but when does someone at remington pull there head out of their as$ & fix this dangerous issue??? I mean someone could have been killed! From the web sites I have been reading this is a pretty common issue! So anyone out there reading this do yourself & the people around you a huge favor, if your going to buy a remington with the mark x pro either purchase a trigger/safety asap or better yet stop buying the remington with the mark x pro & maybe that will get remington to fix this issue! Since people getting injured or even killed doesn't seem to phase remington then it's sad but hit em in the pocket book & don't purchase thier product that has a mark x pro!!!!!!gun)Good luck hunting/shooting & stay safe!!!!
