The issue is simple to me, I refuse to buy a firearm or firearm accessory as a consumer from any manufacturer who refuses to relocate from a staunchly anti gun state that has recently passed oppressive gun control measures. This includes Colorado, New York, and Conn. From the sounds of it NJ, California and some others may soon be on that list as well.

If this were Colorado I could almost see an argument that they have a good chance in the next election to turn the bad gun bills around, but this is New York. the courts may make it a little better in a few years but the antis will just continue to push the limits of the court rulings.

Until Remington agrees to move out of NY I will not be supporting them as a manufacturer. It is a real shame too, one of my next projects was going to be having a "clone" built of my fathers highly customized 60's era Remington 700.

Seriously, I think its time to S&W some of these guys.
