ATLANTA -- Gun maker Remington Firearms will move its headquarters from Ilion, New York, to Georgia, with plans to open a factory and research operation there.

The company announced Monday that it would invest $100 million in the operation in LaGrange, Georgia, southwest of Atlanta, hiring 856 people over five years.

I thought Remington only makes ammo now after having sold off it's firearms division to Ruger as part of their bankruptcy settlement.

They built a manufacturing center in Huntsville right around the time their product line went to [censored] - made a lot of bad decisions pushing cost savings vs quality.

Just to correct myself...

According to documents from the Northern District of Alabama Bankruptcy Court the Vista Outdoor Group will acquire Remington’s Lonoke Ammunitions Business with SIG Sauer as the backup bidder. The Roundhill Group will pick up the non-Marlin Firearms Business with Huntsman Holdings and Century Arms as backup bidders.

Sturm, Ruger & Company will get the Marlin Firearms Business. Long Range Acquisition is the backup bidder for Marlin. Franklin Armory Holding will take the Bushmaster brand and its related assets.

The Advanced Armaments Corporation, DPMS, H&R Firearms, Storm Lake Precision Barrels and Parker Shotguns will go to the JJE Capital Holdings group which owns Palmetto State Armory and PSA Defense.

And Sierra Bullets is set to pick up Barnes Ammunition with a backup bid in from Barnes Acquisition while Sportsman’s Warehouse is in for Tapco.


Putting all this together, it appears it's the Roundhill Group that is moving what was once the former Remington Headquarters to Georgia. Not sure what firearms will be made there but evidently it won't be anything that carries the Marlin name.
