I actually read about that a couple weeks ago in the WSJ..

Sad but they kinda dug their own grave IMHO..their quality has taken a dramatic turn for the worse in the past decade or more..I used to buy only Remington for a good quality lower priced rifle..had a great reputation for accuracy back in the day. Sadly, IMHO, that day has come and gone.

Also pretty sure the lawsuits didn't help the bottom line..replacing thousands of triggers.. all started by a bogus lawsuit, again, IMHO, as I know the gunsmith who looked and worked on the alleged "faulty factory trigger"..
