Remington 581

[270man]

Interesting post, Gil

I bought a Remington 541S back in the late 1970s and still have it. Friend of mine had the 581 and liked the adjustable trigger on my 541S. He borrowed my manual, ordered the 541S trigger assembly from Remington and installed it in his 581. Worked perfectly. A few years later, I wanted to do the same thing in order to have a hunting version of my 541S. The stock on my 541S was too pretty to drill for sling swivel studs and I didn't want to get it dinged up in the woods.

By that time, Remington had stopped selling the 541S parts (no reasons given). The 581s I've seen have the accuracy and function of my 541S. They are just a lower cost version of my fancier 541S.
