Ron Coburn (CEO of Savage Arms Company), wanted a rifle with a trigger with a crisp and creep-free trigger pull. Another goal for Coburn was to make the trigger user-adjustable from 1.5 to 6 pounds (0.68 to 2.7 kg) of pull. The trigger also had to withstand being bumped and accidentally going off, even with the lowest trigger pull set.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“America is the only nation in history which, miraculously, has gone directly from barbarism to degeneration without the usual interval of civilization.”
—Attributed to Georges Clemenceau (1841–1929)
“The foregoing generations beheld God and nature face to face; we, through their eyes. Why should not we also enjoy an original relation to the universe? Why should not we have a poetry and philosophy of insight and not of tradition, and a religion by revelation to us, and not the history of theirs?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“One classic American landscape haunts all of American literature. It is a picture of Eden, perceived at the instant of history when corruption has just begun to set in. The serpent has shown his scaly head in the undergrowth. The apple gleams on the tree. The old drama of the Fall is ready to start all over again.”
—Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)
