Any Remington 700 made after 2007 has the new X Mark trigger regardless of where it is sold. Many big box stores including Walmart and K-Mart, Cabelas, Bass Pro, etc buy guns by the trailer load and store them for years. I've seen guns sold at Walmart that were 5-6 years old. Bought a Marlin 336 from K-Mart once that was over 10 years old.

The difference is that Walmart kept marking up the prices each year on guns that had been in inventory for years. The K-Mart gun still had the 10 year old price tag on it and was a bargain. This was about the time K-Mart stopped selling guns in California. The guns in those stores were shipped to other states and sold there.
