Remington is Moving to LaGrange, GA - Yay!!!

[OttoMan]

"With roots in the Empire State dating back to 1816, Remington, the nation’s oldest gun manufacturer, is bidding farewell to New York. The company has decided to shift all its operations to a new facility in LaGrange, Georgia, located southwest of Atlanta. This move comes after years of operation in upstate New York, where the iconic Remington factory has stood for centuries."

I swear I saw something about Smith and Wesson also moving to GA last week. But don't quote me. I could've just been buzzed.

Well I was close. Looks like they're moving to east Tennessee. I just don't know why both companies didn't figure this out WAY back when. I mean damn, making firearms in NY and MA!? **** the writing was.on the wall probably thirty years ago.

Worst move HONDA could’ve made… moving manufacturing to America.. I hope Remington is better about screening their employees
