Hopefully they get things sorted out. That's a long row to hoe coming back from that mess

I googled the company and there are some pretty good articles where they discuss their plans. Sounds like a good move for the valley

I hope this is successful BUT they key lies here:

“Our hopes are to consolidate in Ilion and go back to an 800-employee facility. That number is highly contingent on our negotiations with the county and the state of New York, and, of course, the union.”

I’m surprised they are still here in New York . I’m sure it’s inevitable they will be gone soon due to taxes. But yes that is a good sign for the workers!

Great to see. Always been a remington fan.

Considering how tax hungry and unfriendly NY is to gun manufacturers, I’m a little surprised to see this .

I agree, but I really don't think he cares about anyone leaving. He says it's because of the weather. I often wonder if he has truly brainwashed himself into really believing that.
