Remington Firearms DBA RemArms LLC to Consolidate Firearms Operations in LaGrange, Georgia

LaGrange – The iconic Remington Firearms brand was founded in 1816, and today, Remington Firearms (RemArms) operates as one of the United States’ largest domestic producers of shotguns and rifles. Chief Executive Officer, Kenneth R. D’Arcy announced that RemArms, America’s oldest firearms brand, will consolidate its firearms operations in LaGrange, Georgia.

This will align all firearms manufacturing with our planned global headquarters and world-class R&D facility in Georgia, which supports and welcomes the firearms industry.

“We are deeply saddened by the closing of the historic facility in Ilion. We have a dedicated workforce at the Ilion facility, but maintaining and operating those very old buildings is cost prohibitive, and NY’s legislative environment remains a concern for our industry. In the coming months, we expect to be working with our Ilion employees and their representative on transition issues.” said Ken D’Arcy, RemArms CEO.

The first Remington Armory was built in 1848.


This Is Remington Firearms

Remington’s innovation was always ahead of its time, as evidenced by a rich history and a long line of legendary firearms. The Model 700 and Model 870 have claimed their rightful places among the best-selling firearms of all time. This proud tradition that began with Eliphalet Remington’s first hand-built rifle in 1816 continues today through RemArms.

In 2020, RemArms acquired the Remington Firearms legacy manufacturing facility in Ilion, NY, and the proud opportunity to build Remington firearms. Our new company, RemArms, is designing, producing, and shipping new Remington firearms to our dealers and customers across the country each and every day. At RemArms, we ensure that our customers buy the very best products available at a fair price. We are focused on building dependable firearms that each of our customers can enjoy for a lifetime.

My first shotgun that allowed me to compete in all 4 gauges in skeet was a used Remington 3200 with 26″ barrels and Briley sub-gauge tubes. Back then Remington would service their products even if decades old. There was no local gunsmith I trusted when my 3200 broke near the end of a season. I crated it up and shipped it off to Ilion NY where they did a quick firing pin replacement and shipped it back. I don’t recall that they even charged me for the work or the return shipping. I sold that gun to buy a Beretta… Read more »

When then-Governor Cuomo was informed about the loss of firearm industry contributors to his state’s tax base, he responded “Good riddance! We don’t want your kind here anyway.”

Very happy to see RemArms leave the Communist State of New York and join the rest of Free America down here in the Deep South.

Even with the expense of moving, it must be gratifying to get out of New York. Freedom is a whole lot tastier with a side of Georgia peach pie.
