For Nearly 200 Years, Remington Firearms Have Been a Part of HistoryRemington Firearms are made by the oldest gun manufacturer in the United States. The story goes that in 1816 Eliphalet Remington II entered a shooting match with a custom made flintlock muzzle loading rifle. Apparently, after the competition, other contestants were so impressed that they wanted to get one of the rifles too. And so started the longstanding history of the Remington company. One category of Remington firearms are their popular shotguns. Models like the 870 shotgun have been around for many decades, and have a tried and true history of performance and reliability. Remington is well known for both it's pump action shotguns, as well as it's autoloading models like the Remington 1100.
In addition, Remington is known for coming out with innovative new features such as the Versamax system used in their newer semiautomatic shotguns. Versamax is a series of gas ports in the chamber that vary the amount of gas pressure that is applied to the action depending on the shell length from the standard 2-3/4" shotshell all the way up to the 3-1/2" magnum. For example, when a powerful 3-1/2" magnum shell is used, the longer shell covers up some of the gas ports in the chamber. When the gun is fired, the additional gas pressure of the 3-1/2" magnum round is directed through a fewer number of ports to apply just the right amount of pressure to the autoloading action. With a shorter 2-3/4" shell, more of the ports are uncovered in the chamber in front of the shell. As a result, when the gun is fired, a greater volume of the lower gas pressure of the shell is directed through additional ports which give power to work the action. This self regulating system allows any ammunition to be used for reliable operation of the gas operated sytem. Simple in principle and brilliant in its design, the Versamax is one example of why Remington firearms are so popular.
In addition to shotguns, Remington firearms also include a variety of rifles in both centerfire and rimfire configurations. Remington rifles like the Model 700 have been long time popular choices for hunter and target shooters alike. Other models like the newer Remington 597 rimfire autoloader rifles offer shooters inexpensive, reliable, and accurate small caliber rifles. Available in .22 LR, .22 Win Mag, & .17 HMR, these small caliber Remington guns provide a great choice for target shooting, plinking, and small varmint hunting. The 597 rifle is priced right and offers the shooter a great value for their money. Now, Remington even produces advanced muzzleloader rifles that provide features not found in traditional muzzle loading guns.
With nearly TWO CENTURIES of gun producing history, Remington has a long history of satisfying the demands of hunters and shooters around the world. With it's wide selection of rifles, shotguns, and advanced muzzleloaders, Remington firearms offer hunters and recreational shooters some of the best all around guns in terms of reliability, accuracy, quality, and value. No matter if you are looking for a rifle, shotgun, or an advanced muzzleloader, a Remington gun may be the right choice for you.
