Hasanyone heard anything about the remington genesis?

you had me going there.. I thought a new kind of black powder had hit the market. Yes Remington has their new model out. It is not too well recieved for a number of reasons, but I am sure it would shoot pretty good if given the chance. This is the one with the funny breech if memory serves me.

Just looked at one at the new Cabales (or how ever you spell it) store in Peoria Arizona. I was not impressed as it is another spanish import that the quality looks fair to good but certainly not the quality of the better real american rifles. Not sure who owns Remington anymore. The seem to put their name on almost anything. I think any of the break action rifles make more sense. NEF and H&R to mention one (or two if you seperate the names). Along a similar line I did not get all excited about the Knight Revolution either. I guess I have a hard time with different ideas. I hated the Omega when it first came out. I own one now and think is is really great. I might still like my Huntsman better (jury is still out).

I have been trying for a while now to find someone who has a Genesis, and haven't yet. I wanted one but hesitated when I heard you would have to mount a scope high to be able to clear the flip up in the back. I heard it was made in Spain and I will not buy one, just like I will not buy CVA or Traditions made in Spain either. American Companies should put their names on products Made In America! Especially in the world of Firearms.

Still waiting for a magazine write-up or a poster shooter report.Being a Remington-named gun, Iwould of expected something by now. Perhaps the American consumer looking for a decent ML is not that deceived after-all.

Yet another Omega copy

The CVA Kodiak is a much better copy. I looked at one in Wallyworld and it had some merit for the money. I don't think I would trade my Huntsman for it though. The stock in front of the falling trigger housing is very sharp and cut my finger when I dropped the block (file time if you own one before it happens to you).

You can go to Remingtons web site and see a video for the genesis rifle.

You would be suprised at how many so caled American made companies put their names on foreign made products. Browning A-bolts are made in japan if memory serves me right. Springfield Armory XD pistols are made in Croatia and other Springfield 1911s in Brazil. Austin & Halleck rifles are made in Spain. What makes the A&H rifle materials any better than a Genesis? We dont know their metal composition or how soft or brittle it is.We havent heard alot of test on them yet. I did read an article on one and the author found it a very accurate and user friendly rifle.People praise the A&H rifles but they are still made in spain. If you have ever seen a Traditions Evolution Premier with stainless fluted barrel(not nickle)and brown laminated stock you would almost see a twin to the A&H. I had an A&H whose qualityranked poorwhen I bought one from bass pro years ago. Thescrew on the bottom of the bolt headwas stripped out and it was missing the ramrod retainer. Not to mention that the sling studretaining nut was turng in the stock because the hole was too big and the logo for Austin & Halleck was almost unreadable on the left side of thereceiver unlike another i had saw which was much deeper and more refined than mine. This doesnt in any way represent all A&H rifles. I believe they are alot better know and well proven.I am just telling about my experience. There are good rifles made in spain and I own some. If they are of high quality and are accurate and get the job done for less money then Ill use them.

you guys know rivers west? They are... ahem... " made in america" but if you look under the tag it says, assembled in guatamala! Alot of so called made in america stuff are really assembled in little 3rd world countrys. Kind of like puerto rico. Stuff made there says made in america.
