Remington Announces New Limited Lifetime Warranty

In celebration of its 200th year in business, Remington Arms is introducing a new limited lifetime warranty for all Remington firearms purchased on or after Jan. 1, 2016.

“We take pride in crafting dependable, quality firearms designed to last a lifetime in the field or on the range,” said Leland Nichols, Senior Vice President/General Manager of Firearms & Accessories. “We’re proud of the Americans who manufacture our products and want to showcase their skill by offering a limited lifetime warranty on all of our firearms.”

The warranty covers the original purchaser of a new firearm from defects in materials and workmanship for the duration of their ownership of the firearm. It allows for repair or replacement of any part(s) of the firearm, or replacement of the firearm if un-repairable, so long as all other requirements of the warranty are fulfilled*.

All products purchased Jan. 1, 2016, or after are covered by the limited lifetime warranty offer.

Remington was one of the only firearms companies to show a loss last year. They had a 135.2 million dollar loss, and 18% decrease in sales. Remington tried to say their sales decrease was because of a soft hunting season. Almost all other firearms manufacturers are reporting record sales. Their quality has taking a huge hit in the last few years. While almost all others are improving quality.
Hopefully they will improve their quality control along with the "new" warranty.
If not, I see how this could be the straw that broke the camels back because of warranty right offs.

Chysler had the best car warranty in the 80s...

I prefer to have products that don't need the best warranty to compete.

Yep and it darn near bankrupt them because their quality sucked so bad.
Hopefully, Remington has learned that lesson, or they won't be around much longer. They were already downgraded again.
