I thought I had read a month or so ago that Freedom Group was in financial trouble. The fact that a company in financial trouble can buy another company is ridiculous. Just like a number of years ago Kmart filing bankruptcy, then 2-3 months later bought Sears. That’s wrong for 2 reasons: 1. companies borrowing money until their indebted to the hilt is why companies like GM are failing now. 2. If you can’t manage your own $h!t how in the he!! are you going to manage someone else’s $h!t?

I seem to recall hearing a rumor about this, that AAC was going to be purchased by Cerberus.

I wonder if AAC sued the originator of THAT rumor…

That explains why AAC got some ACR Masadas to play with before everybody else.

“I think there will be many changes to AAC in the future. They have a unique company culture and I wonder if it will survive the Remington takeover.”

Seriously. A business like AAC would seem to thrive by independence and the freedom to innovate, which are not things you look to Remington for.

Well! That certainly explains why the Silencer Shoot was such a cluster F:(K! I’ve seen better orgainzation emerge spontaneously from a bunch of third graders, and it wasn’t like that in 2008. Clearly, this is all Remington’s fault.

Oh, and DAMN YOU, CERBERUS! I AM NOT GONNA GIVE YOU TREE-FIDDY!
