[QUOTE="FatBoy..., post: 43070, member: 349"] Ian, When I first got my Stealth the safety was almost impossible to work, and then just stuck in the fire position. I've heard of a guy with an FN SPR's who had the same trouble. (on the first edition) My right lug also doesn't contact as much as my left lug, but the rifle performs outstanding for a factory stick. I can only imaging how good it would shoot with 100% lug contact and a trued face. On the safety issue... I sent the rifle back new and unfired and they fixed the safety, replaced the stock after it has been chipped (my fault) and shot three test targets to verify the rifle as a sub MOA shooter (which they kindly sent back with the rifle) I'll likley not buy a new Remington again due to their QC issues. Winchester, even with the few issues I had with mine, has earned my business through their customer service. I'm not sure if what you have is standard for the Coyotes' but I'm pretty sure they'll make it right for you. If I'm not mistaken it's basiclly the same rifle as the Stealth with 2" lopped off the tube and a laminated stock. With Stealths so hard to find I'm suprised there's any of these left on the market.
