You’re correct. I misspoke about Remington.Ruger bought Marlin. Someone else got the Remington brand
Ruger did NOT buy them; they bought the Marlin line. Roundhill bought the main Remington firearm line; the City of Huntsville took over the Alabama property. Roundhill bought the Ilion propertiesRuger bought them. Ruger doesn't offer a pump gun I know about. Sounds like maybe a Ruger 870? Wonder if they will keep the Remington name? Maybe the guns will be even be better quality! I am interested to find out in time
I am kinda concerned about the availability & price of replacement parts & certain accessories down the road.
I would've loved for Remington to bring back some of their old revolvers and derringers under a "Classic" lineup. I'd love a quality new production 1875 or 1890.
Hi All
With the break up of Remington and the various product lines being sold off and separated. Will there still be a 870 shot gun made by someone? Or are they done?

Painting with a pretty broad brush, there. I'm not enamored with expresses but 1100s, 11-87s, and 870 Wing masters have held their own. My personal 870s are from 1975 and thereabouts but we've sold piles of new 870s and I'll admit wood quality may not be as nice as some older ones, the mechanics are fine. Are you throwing the 700s in your blanket condemnation?Remington hasn’t made a quality shotgun in over 20 years.
I own several 870 and 110s bought in the 1970s. Ever since then quality has gone downhill. I will be keeping my vintage Wingmastera and do not care what becomes of the joke Remington evolved into.
I especially stopped paying attention to their little exploits after they betrayed the sportsman and discontinued one of the finest rimfires yet, the Nylon 66, in the late 1980s.
Lucky to have got a RM380 for peanuts and now they have gone way up - if you can find one. Should bought 10!! I fear this will be same for all Remington products even the R51. Probably will move off shore like all the others.I still see a lot of new Remington firearms for sale. Is this just stock which I doubt or are they still producing them.
