On November 26 , 2014, Remington Arms Company announced a
voluntary recall of their Remington Model 887TM shotguns. The shotguns affected
by this recall were manufactured from December 1, 2013 to November 24, 2014. The Remington
Model 887 is a pump-action shotgun with a polymer finish
called Armorlokt intended to survive any type of weather condition with no
exterior surfaces exposed to rust. This series of firearm has been
manufactured by Remington since 2009.
The shotguns in question may display a defect causing the firing pin to bind in
the forward position within the bolt. This can result in an unintentional
discharge when chambering a live round.
“STOP USING YOUR SHOTGUN. Any unintended discharge has the potential to cause
injury or death. Immediately cease use of recalled shotguns and return them to
Remington free of charge. Shotguns will be inspected, repaired, tested, and
returned as soon as possible, at no cost to you. DO NOT attempt to diagnose or
repair recalled shotguns yourself. For your safety, STOP USING YOUR SHOTGUN and
immediately contact Remington.”
“Remington is deeply sorry for this inconvenience, but we
believe in safety first. It is imperative that Model 887TM shotguns subject to
this recall are not used until they have been inspected and repaired by Remington.”
The
Whiskey Delta Gulf is sharing this recall notice in the interest of
safety.
Take care out there
