Does it really matter that much if production
moves off shore ?

I think it absolutely does- without getting too politically charged, every gun company that heads overseas is another gigantic chip away at gun owner's rights worldwide (and no offense, but I don't want to end up with firearms regulations similar to Australia, Canada, Great Britain, etc.). The U.N. is consistently pressing for more restrictive, international gun regulations and the U.S. is the only consistent dissenting voice...we'd all be better off if Winchester had remained in business (or been sold to a U.S. investor) and we'll be in better shape if Remington stays stateside. I predict, however, that won't happen.

Smith & Wesson bucked all odds by returning to U.S. ownership. Not sure that's a repeatable situation.
