Class Action Settlement - Remington Arms

Remington arms agreed to a nation wide class action lawsuit. The settlement came after dozens of similar cases, thousands of complaints and at least two dozen deaths over 50 years related to the model 700 trigger defect. Remington would give the owners vouchers for as much as 12 dollars and 50 cents, but only if they filed a claim during the 18 month window. Critics alleged that the settlement was structured to discourage customers from returning their guns to reduce the cost to remington.
