While lovitz was shooting at clay targets at the mccaun gun


Question: While Lovitz was shooting at clay targets at the McCaun Gun Club, his Remington Model 1100 shotgun manufactured by the Remington Arms Co. exploded in his hands. Lovitz, who suffered injuries to his left hand and thumb, sued Remington, claiming that a manufacturing defect in the shotgun made the company strictly liable for his injuries. Remington contended that prior to shipment the gun was field tested, but the test did not reveal any defects. An expert witness stated at trial that each time the gun was fired, tiny particles of manganese sulfide escaped into the steel barrel causing it to crack and that the cracks continued to expand, causing the gun to explode. Can Lovitz sue Remington for injuries based on product liability? (Lovitz v. Remington Arms Co. Inc., 532 N.E.2d 1091)
