Huntsville facility opened in 2014.



Winter is a good time for a picture thread. Everyone is invited to pile on with a pic of your favorite Remington (even if you have a dog or a relative named Remington ).

This is my favorite Remington, made in 1908. It's a D grade Remingtong Auto loading shotgun (pre Model 11)

I have a Model 24 in 22 short made in 1921, a Model 11 in 20ga that I still hunt with, made in 1932, and a Remington Auto loading rifle (pre Model 8) in 35 Rem that was made in 1907, I have used it for deer hunting.

I'll have to dig them out of the safe and get pictures, if I can get this picture to show.
