This was mentioned in another thread on Nov 15, here's what I said then:

It's not the first time a new gun has been called back. Look what happened when S&W took over domestic production of the time tested Walther PPK/s -- they messed it up and had to do a recall. What about Ruger's new pocket pistol, the LCP -- it got recalled, too. Recall, or not... I'll stick with what I said in early September,

I'm a Remington owner; but, I don't think I want to be the first one on my block to have one of these new Remingtons, do you?
