I own Remingtons. They are not, however, current production Remingtons.
Example of how 'cost saving' boomeranged on them:
They retooled the 1100 and in doing so went to a sintered part where the bolt rides on the action bar. This did not work in the 410 gauge model. The part failed. All of them. Remington could not fix those guns because they no longer made parts that would hold up to the shear forces involved. This took a couple years to correct.
How do you louse up the 1100? That's how.
I see where Federal now owns the ammunition branch of Remington. This reduces competition, and will inevitably result in higher prices for the consumer. That's if the Remington brand survives at all and losing that would be the worst thing about losing Remington.
