Three of Thompson Center’s most popular rifles — the ICON, VENTURE and modular DIMENSION guns — may have a problem with their safeties. In the right circumstances, closing the bolt could cause it to disengage. Yikes. Here’s their press release:
Thompson/Center Arms™ has identified a condition that may cause the safety lever on certain ICON®, VENTURE™ and DIMENSION® rifles to bind, preventing the safety from becoming fully engaged. In this situation, closing the bolt may move the safety to the fire position. The rifle will not fire unless the trigger is pulled. However, out of an abundance of caution, we are taking this action to recall the rifles so that the firearm can be inspected by our technicians to ensure that the safety lever functions as designed . . .
