Yes, Remington got broken up into 7 pieces and Ruger got Marlin. I think they are moving the Marlin product lines to existing Ruger facilities. I don't know if the manufacturing methods will change since Ruger has a particular fondness for casting.

Marlin was bought by Sturm & Ruger Co earlier in the year during the Remington Bankruptcy. Just closed the deal a few weeks ago. Ruger states new Marlins will be available mid 2021 - about the same time the new Remingtons will be available from Roundhill. From my inv Soros has no $ interest in Ruger, Roundhill or any of the other buyers of the Remington assets. The reason why its taking so long for the new guns is that each of these companies must file for a new US firearms cert as the old one under Remington cannot be grandfathered in.

Nefarious bastid. But if the market is there, someone new will spring up hopefully, and force some innovation.

Up until you need permission from government to open a business.

Yeah, it's troubling that the sneaky git gets around shit by lurking behind she'll companies and organizations. He should go back and make Hungary better. Oh wait, they don't want him either...

Fake and gay.

Be careful to double check these things as it only harms us.

^ is the "fact checker" mentioned, clearly they are disputing it, not verifying it.

But fact checkers aside, even a very quick look yourself will show no link to Soros.

He's a snake for sure, but this is fake news.

This gets some things backwards. The leftists Soros AGs sued Remington into bankruptcy. (Sandy Hook)

Marlin has since been bought by Ruger and will continue to make firearms.

Bankruptcy doesn't work that way. The assets get sold off to pay the creditors, like this:

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-09-28/remington-auctioned-off-to-seven-bidders-in-bankruptcy-court

Here are the details on the successful bidders and the Remington businesses they are buying:

  • Vista Outdoor Inc. for its Lonoke ammunitions business and certain IP assets
  • Roundhill Group LLC for its non-Marlin firearms business
  • Sierra Bullets LLC for its Barnes ammunitions business
  • Sturm, Ruger, & Co. for its Marlin firearms business
  • JJE Capital Holdings LLC for DPMS, H&R, Stormlake, AAC and Parker brands
  • Franklin Armory Holdings Inc. for Bushmaster brand and some related assets
  • Sportsman’s Warehouse Inc. for Tapco brands

In this case, marlin got sold off completely to Ruger who is obviously going to continue producing their popular and profitable products.

The only people getting screwed here are AAC customers who need warranty work. Those guys are fucked.

If this is true, it deserves a sticky. If false, I need a picture of you with an Aluminum hat on.

I remember Remington and several other brands being bought by cerberus about 10 years back it seems. Every brand acquired by freedom group has pretty much gone to shit.

Here's something fun, if I'm not totally wrong.

Remington Defense or Bushmaster had the Contract to make the M4 after Colt lost the bid about this same time.
