Remington Bankrupt?

[roberth]

Can't be said enough!!! I'm probably around 500 rounds and couldn't get the gremlins out until I paid $100 for a metal group. Still don't trust that damned thing.

PSA: If you want a 870, get the police model. Used is fine. Spend your money on new barrel(s).

That's why I have the old model 870s with steel, sold off the Express model I had a few years ago.

Smart!

The most unsettling sound I've ever heard is click when I expected BANG!

...or a BANG when you expected a click.

The 1991 A1 was a work of art at a reasonable price. Your opinion may differ.

Depends on if you really needed the BANG.

Ah, hold on Mr. Home Invader, I've got a Remington product. I just need to remove the trigger group, brush out any lose plastic pieces (?), and adjust the shell latches a bit. There. Now where were we?

Yeah, the lawsuits are not the reason. A small part of the puzzle really.

Every company under Freedom Group/ Cerebus has been run into the ground, poor QC, material selection and crappy leadership. AAC was a great innovator and one of the top dogs in the suppressor industry until they made the mistake of selling out to freedom group. Kevin Brittingham, founder and main man in charge of AAC won a 14 million lawsuit against freedom/cerebus when they wrongly fired him and ran AAC into the dumpster. If I recall correctly the CEO of cerebus was voted as one of the worst CEO's in America.

Remington is a poor shadow of it's once proud self. My 80' and 90's remingtons are far more of a quality firearm that what is on the shelves at the store today, sad.

Tommy Miller didn’t help them out either back in 07. Brought a great company down Cabela’s this year.

Bank of America to Loan $43.2 Million to Arms Maker Remington

Bank of America Corp. (BAC - Get Report) will lend $43.2 million to Remington Arms, an assault rifle manufacturer.

The loan was pledged in March before the bank announced its plan to pull out from financing companies that produce "military-style" guns. Reuters noted, upon reviewing bankruptcy court documents, that Bank of America could pull out of the agreement but could face legal consequences if it doesn't finance Remington.
