Where did you read or hear that? T/C sales do not hold a candle to either H&R or NEF. I'd hardly think I'd want to go the high priced nitch market that T/C represents and trade it for the H&R or NEF market share.
Plains, I am not implying that Remington will deep-six the inexpensive H&R and NEF models, merely making the observation that the H&R/NEF guns represent another option for expansion for Remington. Remington gets Marlin but also a line which is radically different both to the Marlin offerings and to anything Remington currently sells. As I understand it, the H&R/NEF guns are sold en masse not just here in the USA but also overseas. Remington, with the acquisition of Marlin gets the lever market and what just may be the most popular single shots worldwide.
