If you've visited the USFA website since March 23, 2009, chances are that you've noticed the absenced of the Remington logo. Now I discovered this late in the evening and thought the worst. After watching Appaloosa and getting a good night sleep, I decided to cosult Gary Granger. Now I'm not sure that I should tell you what he told me, but I'm no longer thinking the worst. If that says anything.
A work in progress.

Says absolutely nothing.  If you have something to say, say it.

Alright.

Gary Granger informed me that the officials from Remington Arms came in and test fired the 58's and the 75's(Gary himself has personally test fired a couple of examples ;)). He went on to say that the RA officials took those guns with them back to their Ilion, New York facility. That was two weeks prior to the posting of this thread. Remington Arms has not contacted USFA about the revolvers as of yet.

Now you know as much as I know.

The bad news is that Remington lost $39.4 MILLION in 2008.  :o

Ups and Downs, that's true with any business.

They're probably havin too much fun shootin em to respond. Maybe they are also considering liability issues. Do you think they would try to put some sort of safety on them?  :-\
Smoke em if ya got em.

I would agree with you on the grounds that they're having too much fun with the guns to respond, as well as taking the liability issues into consideration. As for a safety? ??? ::)  If they bow to historical accuracy then we shouldn't worry about that.
