@Sarge, And don’t forget all the really good ParaOrdinance designs that Remmy shelved so that the R51 would have a chance at success. Remmy has a “profit at the expense of quality” corporate mentality.
You know how it is when a new commander takes over… he has to make an inspirational speech to get things off on the right foot.
so, am I correct in assuming that Mr. Acitelli has agreed to take the helm during this modern period when Remington has recently given us the R51 fiasco, the R9 boondoggle, the 700 trigger lawsuit, and their recent bankruptcy? And he thinks Remington is the vanguard of the industry who “…continue to deliver high-quality products to our valued customers and demonstrate our two core principles, passion for precision and pride in craftsmanship” ? Hopefully he will be able to bring Remington up to the standards of quality, price/value, and health that Taurus enjoyed under his guidance.
