Remington is one of the greatest companies in America. Since 1816, Remington has been a leader in firearms, ammunition, targets, and many, many more industries.

The legend is that Remington’s founder, Eliphalet Remington II, believed he could build a better gun than he could buy. Eliphalet then set out to accomplish this task at his father’s forge in New York. In the fall of 1816, Eliphalet entered a shooting match with his handmade flintlock rifle, and as they say, the rest is history. He only finished second, but his gun was a hit and Remington was born. The company was originally named E. Remington & Sons.
