Firearms maker Remington Arms Co. filed for bankruptcy protection

[Fox]

Just heard from one of my Moose crew. He bought a Rem 700BDL Custom from Cabela's. When it arrived,it was one of the models that had a detachable mag,not the one shown on their website. He unboxed it and it was pretty as all get out,but,after he cleaned the packing crud from it and tried the action,it bound like a SOB. The detachable mag was really flimsy. He decided not to keep and sent it back requesting,specifically,that they send him the rifle pictured without the mag. Two weeks later,he received a letter from Cabela's stating the rifle he wanted was no longer available from Remington and they issued a refund. He was pretty disappointed,but,I guess now he knows why.

I think he can blame Cabelas for a good chunk of that. I had a muzzle loader ordered from them, fully paid and they called me to tell me that they will not be getting them in anymore, you are SOL. I had to argue to get a decent discount on a traditional muzzle loader to offset the massive deal I was suppose to get on the inline rifle.

update:

Firearms maker Remington Outdoor Co. has agreed to sell its ammunition business out of bankruptcy to South Carolina-based investment firm JJE Capital Holdings LLC for $65 million plus the assumption of liabilities, subject to better offers.

The JJE offer came in the form of a stalking-horse bid, setting a floor on the sale price for Remington’s ammunition business, which the company has been marketing while in chapter 11. Remington filed for bankruptcy protection in July and has been open to selling its ammunition and firearms operations to pay off its debt.

Ruger buying Marlin is very good news,indeed. With their business accumen and high quality standards,if any company can salvage the Marlin brand,they certainly can.

Yes sometimes it’s for the best. Ruger will make Marlin great again.

This should be good news. I wish them luck.

Remington says they will re-launch the 870 and 700 before hunting season. Model 1100, Versamax and V3 to follow. No commitment to the 7600 & 750 yet.

The 760 and 7600 are good rifles. It would be a shame if they don’t bring it back.

Kind of surprises me that a scaled-back firm would plan to offer 3 semi-automatic shotguns in their line up.
