I just went to the gun shop and i was told that Remington had bought the Baikal name.I bet they go up in price.I wonder what happened with the deal with Savage.I saw a few sxs 411 Baikal Savages .

afaik, remington has contracted with EAA on them.. i THINK it's the lzh43....

which is one ofthe reasons the mp221 double rifle is so slow coming out

Just last week I picked up a copy of the new 2005 Remington Firearms, Ammunition, and Accessories catalog at the Prince George's County Trap & Skeet Center. That catalog contains a number of pages of guns -- SXS, Single Shot, and O/U shotguns; and Single Shot rifles and O/U rifle/shotgun combinations -- under the Spartan Gunworks name. I asked the person manning the counter there, and he said that these look like Baikal guns. So the claim that Remington is importing Baikal guns, under a different name, seems to be true. Whether or not Remington has bought out Baikal I cannot say.

Suggested prices are not given in this catalog, or at least I haven't been able to find them there.

Good for Baikal.

I'll bet the CEO of Yukos would like to have been bought out by Exxon/Mobil before Pooty Poot threw him in debtors' prison.
