Remington 770, did they fix the quality issue?

December 20, 2011 18:48

or is it still a POS?

Wal-mart had them on sale for $275 on Black Friday.

I did a search here and didn't find any threads where anyone had a good opinion of them.

Nope, they are the discount gun. If you need inexpensive, look for a Savage or Stevens

Henry0Reilly,

Unfortunately, this will have to remain another one of Remington's abyssal failures which they refuse to make right by removing it from the market. I can't suggest or recommend even considering buying one of these no matter what the discount price is.

Best.

HenryOReilly,

You have been given great advise. If you are considering these, or a Savage Edge/Axis(They don't even have a functional recoil lug attached o the action), then don't. You asuredly will be regretful later.

They are junk. Stevens 200 is a good buy for the money.

They aren't worth $275!

Buy a savage...hell an army surplus for $100 would be a better gun than a 770![:(!]

if money is tight do the stevens 200. if it is cheaper than 200 look for a used savage 110.if you can ny up i think about 350.00 the marlin xl seires is nice. alot of people will say the 710/770 is junk.i think new out of the box there are just better options for your money
