It covers safety checks, opening the action, accessing the unique coil mainspring mechanism, cleaning, lubrication, and reassembly. The information is presented with a high level of authority, drawing on detailed knowledge of the firearm's mechanics and history.

The Remington EtronX, a Model 700 variant from 2000-2003, utilized an innovative electrical firing system with proprietary primers. This technology promised a 97% reduction in lock time, down to milliseconds, offering a theoretical accuracy advantage. Despite its advanced features like an adjustable trigger and a 9V battery power source, the EtronX failed commercially due to its high $2,000 MSRP and market skepticism towards electronics in firearms.

This interview with Bill Geissele of Geissele Automatics covers the company's product development philosophy, stemming from military and competitive shooting requirements. Geissele discusses the engineering behind their triggers, emphasizing full-power hammer springs for reliability and reduced lock time. The conversation highlights their Super Precision scope mount's exceptional return-to-zero capabilities, achieved through 5-axis machining and a robust clamping system. New products like an ambidextrous charging handle and an enhanced AK-47 trigger are showcased, alongside their bio-based firearm lubricant, 'Purple Go Juice,' designed for stability, lubricity, and corrosion resistance.
