I suggest you read the about page for Republic Steel and focus on REP. What you have is not the same company as the one I said was defunct, even if the current company can be traced through mergers and name changes to the former. Basically, the current company is sub of a
Mexican company.
It looks like I may be wrong about what REP stands for. If it is Republic Steel, a quick Google indicates that the
company has been defunct since 1984. Still, REP. is not necessarily Remington's proof mark.
I believe something was said in that review about The letters REP stamped on the barrel. Maybe I read it somewhere. They are not necessarily a Remington mark but a mark for "
Republic Steel" as in Republic of China. At least per

I suggest you quit making up false information to support your agenda. Maybe do a slight bit of research if you have no idea what you're talking about.

Notice the similarities?
"Specifically, why do you say that Remington does the warranty work or the fitting for the barrels. "
I know it's hard to find, but google any warranty work done to H&R's
"Why do you say that the PP is imported without barrels?"
From the owner's manual: •WARNING: Except for installation of the barrel, your gun was
shipped fully assembled. It should not be used or disassembled without reading and understanding the instructions in this manual.
