Remington’s new product peeps have been busy as of late, what with the Model 783 and all. This despite the fact that the company’s owner (Cerberus Capital Management) has been looking to offload the gunmaker and their Freedom Group compadres to someone, anyone, since California teachers got Bushmasteritis. Or maybe that’s the reason why Remmy’s unleashing a fusillade of tease and release marketing campaigns: to gin-up the company’s stock price. Or it could be that the Venture X was set in motion pre-Newtown; corporate plans are harder to stop than Lindsay Lohan headed to the Botox doc. Anyway, the Venture X reveal looks like one of those Zombie or HSLD things; you need a super secret password to gain access. Or you could watch the video and make the jump for the sly spiel from whatisventurex.com and guess. Or just wait ’til TTAG’s NRA Convention coverage in a few weeks . . .
The VentureX Eyes-Only development program by Remington is close to completion. After years of advanced research by our team and a specialized high tech industry partner, we will announce some details about what Venture X means for the future of shooting during this year’s NRA Annual Meeting in Houston Texas. Apply for clearance to learn about the project as details become available.
I wonder if they’ll put you through a NICS check, mandatory for all emails with gunmakers under New York’s SAFE Act. JK. I think.
My money is on a partnership with the TrackingPoint boys. A cheaper, consumer grade version of their super special scope. At least, that’s what the profile of the rifle makes it look like.
Also, I could SWEAR that range is the same one the TP guys use…
Unless the universal background checks are “voluntary” meaning private sales can be given NCIS access voluntary, alongside national CCW reciprocity, then nay.
Oh. My. Gosh!
I shoot where the soil is extremely hard and rocky, and I never once thought of drilling a hole in a board to prop up my spinner targets.
The sad thing is I don’t see a likelihood of a huge opposition to limits on black powder. It’s dearly beloved and all that, but realistically, how many gun people you know mess with black powder on anything approaching a regular basis? How many people are going to raise a fuss about that compared to black rifles or magazine sizes?
Why is everyone jumping to conclusions? I bet someone just forgot about their pot of chile. Running makes you hungry. I hear that recipe is da Bomb!
NO more compromise of our rights.
NAY!
Shut up would you? They haven’t figured it out yet. None of them have actually been in a gun store, and they haven’t a clue what you can buy there. Let’s keep it that way, shall we?
Texas sure has a good set of senators.
…and Shumer lies out of his ass.
