Barber family

Rich Barber

In 2000, Gus Barber was 9-years old when he was killed by a misfired Remington rifle. Since Gus’s tragic death, his father Rich has been gathering evidence about the faulty trigger design on Remington’s 700-series rifles; the defect has been a public safety hazard for more than half a century. Public Justice is now seeking to unseal court records that could prove Remington’s dangerous negligence.
