As am I. Even if it`s not the original Big Green, it doesn`t seem right not to have Remington guns in the field and at the range. I`m pulling for them.No personal experience but I am reading good reports.
I'm glad Big Green is back.
So is Winchester, so is Marlin and many others...Rem arms, Remington is dead.
I watched American Rifleman TV this morning and they were talking up the new green, showing that the REM headstamp is now R and that the ammo now, "much better."
Yep. They belong to the history books.They're not "back."
A crook who had lead the collapse of other legacy companies was appointed by former investors to bleed the company dry and recoup their investments, and after doing so, he bought the ashes out of bankruptcy to make money selling on the name.
So Big Green was murdered, then his murderer tanned his hide and is wearing him like a suit, pretending to be Big Green... (and that's being generous to ignore the fact that the murderer REALLY cut up the body and the other valuable parts of Big Green were sold to other companies which actually do care about firearms enthusiasts and the market in which we live)...
And now they belong to CZ.Recognizing here - the Remington Ammunition company was bought by Vista Outdoors, and is not related in any way with the Remington Arms company manufacturing firearms.
As others have said, there is no post-Freedom Remington.Eyeing a 700 SPS in .308
Does anyone have any experience with a post-Freedom Group Remington?
Quality?
Accuracy?
Triggers? I like Timney, whats your experience?
Extraction?
One could say Remington died 140 years ago if you want to be nit picky about the name and ownership!
And now they belong to CZ.
