Remington Outdoors isn't filing for bankruptcy because of politics or because guns last a long time, as others have suggested. They've been acquiring big-name arms manufactures like Remington Arms, Bushmaster, and Marlin, then throwing quality control out the window while they ride the reputations of their subsidiaries into the ground.

I just read bout that...what an appalling effort, and they should have known better. They have serious issues of a newly designed pistol cannot match a $150 Makarov in terms of manufacturing quality.
