Their profits are down because the salad days of Obama/Hillary fear induced sales are gone for now. Just shows how poorly run Remington is that they can't plan more than a year into the future.

Their profits are down because Freedom Group made absolute shit quality firearms with QC issues out the wazoo.

Pre FG Rem guns often sell for more than new ones simply because of the manufacturing quality differences.

The pro gun community is actually responsible for the Remington issues, as they have been railing on Remington for years now, which really started around the Rem 700 recalls.
