Since this is a gun related forum, I should mention that Remington has a manufacturing plant located in Hickory - just outside of Mayfield. This plant had some lay offs recently. Had been running three shifts.
Not sure which models they make. I am sure that the plant makes the 597 22LR rifles. ( It says so on the barrel of mine.)
