Remington files Chapter 11 bankruptcy

[easy rider]

Too many Nazi's assimilated to America and other parts of the world to distinguish what had been made or accomplished by them.

 

[Kar98]

Well, as an AMERICAN and past & present Remington owner, I hope they come back, bigger and better. Other than an AK-47, I own NO foreign made guns. People on the handgun forum crow and brag about their foreign made handguns, some made by companies started by NAZIS after the war. I don't care how good they supposedly are, they are not made here and there are American handguns that are just as good.

Who in hell is Godwin, and why should I give a rats azz?

 

[LOCKHART]

I'm NOT calling anyone on here a Nazi. I was talking about Heckel & Jeckel, and the guys that formed that company after world war two WERE Nazi bastards!

 

[Lunyfringe]

I honestly didn't expect Godwin's law to take effect in this thread.

So were you formally trained in debate, or just picked it up here as a Mod?

Just curious... I don't have formal debate training, just see a pattern (which IS something I'm trained to do)

 

[LOCKHART]

LOL! He DO like to debate!

Isn't that special.

 

[SQLGeek]

Maybe! At least they aren't made by "former" Nazi bastards!

Like that a-hole Wernher von Braun.

No wait, he only got us to the moon.

"Illinois Nazis, I HATE Illinois Nazis!"

 

[LOCKHART]

Wow, they have Nazis in Illinois? Who woulda think it!

 

[Kar98]

Do they not have the internet in Lockhart, Texas?

 

[LOCKHART]

Hell, I thought I was ON the internet!

 

[LOCKHART]

But we do have great bar b q here. LOL!

 

[Southpaw]

Hell, I thought I was ON the internet!

And the criteria for a bolt action sniper rifle is that it be ACCURATE! Remington actions based on the 700 model were winning bench rest competition's right & left at the time of Vietnam, and that action was designed by Mike Walker, one of the best bench rest shooters ever. Some of our elite units have even gone back to the 1911. Wonder why that is?

I didn't know Remington made competition winning benchrest rifles.

 

[LOCKHART]

And now you know the REST of the story! LOL!

 

[V-Tach]

Remington was ran into the ground the same way Colt was....... by big corp. owners...

Sad.....

 

[Lunyfringe]

Isn't that special.

It's supposed to be a compliment... you're well versed in debate terms... red herring, godwin's law

Just making conversation

Like that a-hole Wernher von Braun.

My dad worked with him at Redstone. "Smartest Nazi I ever met" was his impression.

Dad never could get over the cognitive dissonance of respecting the man and the work he did for us vs. his past.

 

[Ranger550]

Didn't he jump on the original Assualt Weapons Ban bandwagon, or am I thinking of some other gun maker?

Ruger WANTED the ten round magazine limit I know.

 

[TheDan]

Just saw this on Smith & Wesson forum. Any thoughts?

I think it's a good thing. Chapter11 isn't the end of the world. Maybe someone who actually gives a damn about the company will buy it now.

Every product has a better and usually cheaper counterpart from another manufacturer.

Agree, but the exception to that is the RP9. It's definitely the nicest gun in it's price range.

Like that a-hole Wernher von Braun.

That's the reason why SpaceX had so many failures at first. Not enough Nazi scientists.
