As conditions in New York get worse and worse, particularly for conservatives and conservative-coded businesses, such as gun companies, the exodus from the state is continuing. Among those done with dealing with the state is firearms manufacturer Remington, which is now closing a famous manufacturing plant it opened in 1828.
\n\"\"
\nRemington opened a second plant in Huntsville, Alabama, in 2014. That plant will remain open, which makes sense given that Alabama is far more friendly to firearms owners and firearms generally than New York. The New York plant closure will be complete by March of 2024.<\/p>\n

The plant that Remington is closing is in the town of Ilion, New York. The facility is the longest-operating firearm manufacturing plant in America and employs three hundred people from the surrounding town, many of whom are part of families who have worked there for generations.<\/p>\n

In a memo to employees, the company said, \u201cI am writing to inform you that RemArms, LLC has decided to close its entire operation at 14 Hoefler Avenue, NY 13357. The Company expects that operations at the Ilion Facility will conclude on or about March 4, 2024.\u201d<\/p>\n

The big issues for the plant appear to be legal in nature, stemming from New York\u2019s general hostility to firearms. For one, the plant was involved in a 2015 suit filed against Remington by the Sandy Hook families over its \u201cBushmaster\u201d AR-15 being used in the shooting. A $73 million settlement between the families and the manufacturer was reached in 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
