Newton,

I have never heard that complaint about the 14-141s, what are you basing that on ? I have a 141 in .35 Remington, it is a great rifle in my opinion. I am not saying you are wrong, just wanted you to elaborate on them being "not good". I prefer them over the 760-7600 design, as they just feel so much slicker and more solid, no rattle and slop to the forearm.

I am aware that the 141s can not handle hot handloads as well with their locking system, but used with ammunition loaded to factory specs, I have never experienced or heard of any problems. None of the pump rifles are ideal for those wishing to push the envelope with handloads.
