But it entered its latest bankruptcy without a leading bidder after sale talks with the Navajo Nation fell through, according to multiple reports.<\/p>\n<p>Gun sales have reportedly spiked in the US amid the coronavirus pandemic and massive protests against police brutality and racism. But that surge couldn\u2019t save Remington, whose total net sales fell to about $437.5 million last year from more than $865 million in 2016, according to D\u2019Arcy\u2019s filing.<\/p>\n<p>Part of the company\u2019s troubles reportedly stems from the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, in which the gunman used a rifle made by Remington\u2019s Bushmaster brand. Remington saddled itself with debt in part to cover legal expenses as families of the shooting victims sued the company, according to The New York Times.<\/p>\n<p>Eliphalet Remington II founded his namesake company in 1816 with the goal of building a better gun than what was available at the time. Remington went on to become one of the nation\u2019s largest gun manufacturers \u2014 its weapons were used in both World Wars and are still popular with militaries, law enforcement and recreational shooters.<\/p>\n<p>The private equity firm Cerberus Capital Management handed ownership of Remington to creditors including Franklin Templeton Investments and JPMorgan Asset Management in the company\u2019s 2018 bankruptcy, which reportedly wiped away more than $775 million of its $950 million debt load.<\/p>\n<p><em>With Post Wires<\/em>\n            <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more Business <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/general\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>if you want to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">watch Movies<\/a> or Tv Shows go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/dizi.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dizi.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a> <\/span> for forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/07\/28\/remington-gunmaker-files-for-second-bankruptcy-in-two-years\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#Remington gunmaker files for second bankruptcy in two years&#8221; July 28, 2020 | 9:12am Remington Outdoor Company, one of America\u2019s oldest gunmakers, has declared bankruptcy for the second time in about as many years with plans to sell its business.
