In addition to being popular with hunters and target shooters, a version of the 700 is also widely used by law enforcement and military snipers. The Remington Model 700-series rifle -with more than five million sold-is famous for its accuracy and smooth trigger. The controversy over the 700 is explored in a CNBC Original documentary, “Remington Under Fire: A CNBC Investigation,” premiering Wednesday, October 20 at 9pm ET/PT. But the Remington Arms Company has never alerted the public to the internal concerns, and insists the gun is free of defects, despite thousands of customer complaints. The manufacturer of the world’s most popular hunting rifle has been wrestling for decades with questions about whether the gun is safe, and at least twice considered a nationwide recall of the gun, according to corporate insiders and internal documents revealed in a ten-month CNBC investigation.
