Maybe It's Not The Slump

I've a theory about Remington and their bankruptcy.

Quality control was down across the board.

During the Bolt-Gun agony I coon-fingered lots and lots of guns, both new and used.

When the budget minded Savage Axis line felt more finished and smoother than a 700 priced three to five times as much...  There's a problem.  Never mind that for 2/3 the price of new there's nice examples of older guns which definitely seem better made.

There's thread after thread complaining about newer Marlin's.

Then there's the lawsuit over the 700's trigger.  That sure didn't help sales.

AAC went from an innovative and quirkily fun silencer company to another cog in the giant corporate conglomerate.

Bushmaster didn't exactly shower itself in glory when they adapted Magpul's Masada concept rifle into the ACR.  They didn't keep promises repeatedly made.

The R51 launch wasn't what you wanted to have when introducing a new product either.

Heard any good buzz about the RP9?

It's endemic.
