Why not move to an extremely red state? You can't trust Georgia with the Atlanta area.

Democrats in Georgia flipped 41 seats in 21 counties last Tuesday. They have the ability to keep their victories hush for the big surprise one day. Because they own the media of course. Thus is probably why they are undeterred from Virginia. They're flipping Georgia.

Didn't they have one in the South somewhere and it folded? Can't remember where but I would assume South would strive for gun manufacture.

Probably sent it to Mexico like all other manufacturing.

Georgia is red. It's just the vote counters that are blue.

Rest assured the city of Atlanta will do everything in its power to make Remington regret this when they take full power in Georgia next year.

I tend to agree here. Georgia is a nano second away from Stacy Abrams being governor. Then Georgia will be no better than New Jersey and Remington will wish they moved to Florida.

Remington moved to Huntsville in like 2014, but then folded within 3 years or so. Luckily the city was able to recoup a lot of the incentives they gave Remington, but still it sucked. I believe the company filed for chapter 13 bankruptcy last year.

Not much of an upgrade after 11/3/20.

It’s not really Remington but pieces parts. Saddens me as I have always been a Remington guy.

Sort of like when Browning quit making guns in Belgium. Just wasn’t the same.

Georgia SOS is worth every penny the Democrats are paying him.

Remington had a plant in Little Rock till a few years ago. Made ammunition, I believe. No idea why they left.

Remington was owned by Cerberus Capital Management. They cheapened the product to increase profits, but they only accomplished reducing quality and safety. Sales plummeted and the company was declared bankrupt twice. It has been sold off in parts.

The Remington Arms business and the non-Marlin firearms business was sold to Roundhill Group LLC. Marlin was bought by Ruger. Remington's ammunition business, brand name and trademarks were sold to Vista Outdoor.
