Vista Outdoors got the ammunition manufacturing and the rights to the Remington brand name. Roundhill Group bought from bankruptcy the firearms intellectual property and some tooling. Roundhill will have to negotiate with Vista for the use of the Remington brand or come up with another name for the firearms business I would think. What CEO went wear and did what, I do not care. Vista Outdoors seems to be spooling up to make ammo. Roundhill seems to be moving in the direction of reviving some former Remington firearms production but in what way and measure and which ones we will have to wait and see. Ruger seems intent on manufacturing Marlin firearms and keeping the Marlin brand alive, though in Prescott, AZ. And the Marlin website has been rearranged with categories but no specifics on models. Seems clear Ruger intends to maintain separation of Marin from Ruger at the consumer level via separate Marlin and a Ruger websites and branding even if not at the manufacturing location level.
Are we going to continue to hate on Remington and everyone and everything to do with Freedom Group despite the scattering of the former Remington Company to the four winds? The Freedom Group hate and Remington hate can be dropped now. The new entities that own all of the divided up former company including Ruger owning Marlin owe nothing to the former creditors, employees or anything else that I can determine. The page has been wiped clean.
I still see Remington firearms on store shelves, less and less, left over product. Whatever comes from Roundhill, good or bad, will not be the same as before and may not even say Remington on them. We will see in due course.
So, no, Remington, owned by Vista Outdoors, is not building any firearms but they are rebooting Remington ammunition. They cannot build firearms because they did not purchase from bankruptcy that property.
