Go take a look at the responses.

To our Remington fans,

We believe the NY SAFE Act is unconstitutional and was passed in a questionable fashion.

Remington and its employees worked diligently with pro-gun legislators to prevent the Act's passage. We actively participated in the Albany rallies and drove the letter-writing campaign to stop this anti-gun legislation.

The recently awarded Department of Defense (Special Operations Command) contract, questioned by some as a "pay-off," has been in development for years -- it has nothing to do with NY State.

While we are unhappy with the misguided acts of our elected politicians, Remington will not run or abandon its loyal and hard working 1,300 employees without considerable thought and deliberation. Laws can be overturned and politicians voted out of office, but the decisions we make today will affect our people, their families and entire communities for generations.

Please bear with us as we determine the most appropriate way to satisfy our customers and protect our employees.

With the new contract they could easily pay moving expenses to a state with a much lower cost of living.

Yeah that's pretty much what I said to them. Do the right thing and get out of NY and stop doing business with places like that and I might buy from you again. Till then... Reap it.

Their response shows it's having an impact.

Almost worth getting one to read this shite. The fans are ripping them a new a-hole. There are lots of stupid comments but some are actually pretty well thought out.

Y'all keep hating on Remington but I'm glad they are not quitting on 1300 employees. Some people can't afford to up and move just because their company relocates. Anybody wanting to sell Remington's please contact me.
