I find most of the the responses(below) to the Remington expansion fascinating stuff. Remington has been searching for quite some time for a new facility and have looked at locations in 24 states.

I wouldn't be surprised to find in a few years, Remington performing just the machining for their firearms in Ilion NY ... and doing assembly, warehousing, distribution in the south with less costly/sophisticated labor.
