    Be interesting to see how they go under the new ownership & factory move,a mate in the US was saying a while ago at how bad they were going before the latest cluster fuck sell out they went from over 1000 workers down 350 & only 260 of those were full time employees,the main problems with the end product quality over the recent times was the QC team was gutted & at times none were present to boost production numbers for the bean counters ,save wages/ over time & then bulk QC was rubber stamped .

    Couple of articles for those interested -


    " Gun-maker Remington Firearms will move its headquarters to Georgia, with plans to open a factory and research operation there.

    The company and Georgia officials announced Monday that the nation's oldest gun manufacturer that started in Herkimer County in 1816 would invest $100 million in the operation in LaGrange, Georgia, southwest of Atlanta, hiring 856 people over five years."
