Maybe the Winchester facility will go the way of the Springfield Armory in Springfield, MA. They made M1s there for years- produced somewhere between a million and a bazillion of them.
Now it's a museum and historic site maintained and staffed by the Park Service.
And it's in a terrific part of town too.
By which I mean it's in a terrible part of town.
Sorry to hear Winchester going down. The Model 12 pump shotgun is a classic (sorry all you 1200 fans). Ithica (sp?) gone. Now Winchester?
Antigun/antihunting liberals...thanks a bunch!
Maybe we eventually, like Iraq, will buy our guns from Russia (or China).
Smooth move.

Springfield Armory in MA was a govt-run arsenal. Winchester has always been a private company.
