The Remington company was founded in 1816. Eliphalet Remington II (1793–1861) believed he could build a better gun than he could buy. Remington began designing and building a flintlock rifle for himself.{{Cite book|last=Tuttle|first=Frank|title=The Business History Review|year=1957}} At age 23 (in late 1816), he entered a shooting match; though he finished second, his well-made gun impressed other contestants. Before Remington left the field that day, he had received so many orders from other competitors that he had officially entered the gunsmithing business. By 1828, he moved his operation to nearby Ilion. The modern Remington firearms plant still uses this site.

On March 7, 1888, two years after spinning off the typewriter business which later became Remington Rand, the Remington family sold the ownership of E. Remington & Sons to new owners, Marcellus Hartley and Partners. This consisted of Hartley and Graham of New York, New York, a major sporting goods chain that also owned the Union Metallic Cartridge Company in Bridgeport and the Winchester Repeating Arms Company of New Haven, both in Connecticut. At this time, the company formally changed its name to the Remington Arms Company.{{cite journal|last=Henning|first=Robert A.|author2=Terrence H. Witkowski |title=The Advertising of E.

When the US entered World War I, Remington became deeply involved in the war effort.{{Cite journal|last=Strother|first=French|date=January 1916|title=America, A New World Arsenal|journal=The World's Work: A History of Our Time|volume=XXXI|pages=321–333|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=09_Sr9emceQC&pg=PA321|access-date=August 4, 2009|archive-date=March 31, 2017

During the Great Depression, Remington was purchased by DuPont, which had made its name with improvements to gunpowder. A year later, Remington purchased the Peters Cartridge Company; today, many of the Remington headstamps still have "R-P" on them for Remington-Peters.{{cite book|last=Nonte|first=George C.|title=Firearms encyclopedia|url=https://archive.org/details/firearmsencyclop0000nont|url-access=registration|year=1973|publisher=Harper & Row|page=[https://archive.org/details/firearmsencyclop0000nont/page/324 324]|isbn=978-0-06-013213-2}}

In 1940, the US Army became worried about its ammunition capacity and asked Remington to collaborate on a plan for national expansion. With the aid of DuPont, Remington built the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant (named Lake City Arsenal initially) and Denver Ordnance ammunition plants, and three more plants later on, including the Lowell Ordnance Plant. Though the plants belonged to the US government, Remington was asked to oversee their operation. Among the weapons that Remington manufactured for the government during World War II was the famous M1903A3 Springfield bolt-action rifle.

During the 1950s and 1960s, Remington expanded into other products besides guns, with the purchase of Mall Tool Company in 1956.{{cite web|url=http://www.remington.com/pages/our-company/Company-History.aspx|title=Company History|website=Remington|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100829193636/http://www.remington.com/pages/our-company/Company-History.aspx|archive-date=August 29, 2010}}{{cite web |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=x8XkAAAAMAAJ&q=remington+arms |title=The Timberman |website=Books.google.com |date=October 7, 2009 |access-date=January 31, 2016 |archive-date=June 10, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160610094544/https://books.google.com/books?id=x8XkAAAAMAAJ&q=remington+arms |url-status=live }} One of the products was chain saws.[https://books.google.com/books?id=1SoDAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA201 Advertisement] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160610111538/https://books.google.com/books?id=1SoDAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA201 |date=June 10, 2016 }}, Popular Science, October 1967, p. 201 (retrieved October 16, 2010 from Google Books)

In 1962, Remington introduced the Model 700 bolt-action rifle, which became one of Remington's most successful firearms and quickly lent itself to developments of many sub-variants, including the Remington 700 BDL, Remington 700PSS for police and law enforcement agencies (the rifle, later renamed 700P, is very popular among law enforcement agencies) and the military M24 SWS, which was the United States Army standard sniper rifle between 1988 and 2010. Other armed forces worldwide still use it, such as the IDF. Other firearms brands designed and manufactured sniper rifles based on the reliable and accurate Remington Model 700 action.

In 1969, Remington broke ground on a new ammunition manufacturing plant in Lonoke, Arkansas. By 1970, centerfire ammunition in the Remington, UMC and Peter's brand names were being produced by the facility. The company's shotshell then rimfire ammunition production operations were subsequently moved to the Lonoke facility in the mid 1970s and early 1980s.{{cite web | url=https://www.remingtonsociety.org/2th-annual-rsa-historical-seminar-remington-ammunition-plant-lonoke-arkansas/ | title=2th [sic] Annual RSA Historical Seminar Remington Ammunition Plant, Lonoke, Arkansas - Remington Society of America | date=October 17, 2015 }}

In 1986, Remington closed its ammunition plant in Bridgeport, Connecticut, completely transferring operations to the facility in Lonoke, Arkansas. A year later, Remington built a new clay targets plant in Athens, Georgia. According to an article in The New York Times, in 1993, Remington's parent company—DuPont de Nemours & Company (DuPont)—sold Remington to the New York investment firm Clayton, Dubilier & Rice (CD&R) for $300 million.{{Cite news |issn=0362-4331 |last=Adelson |first=Andrea |title=Company News; Du Pont Sells Remington Gun Maker |work=The New York Times |access-date=2019-10-09 |date=1993-10-22 |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1993/10/22/business/company-news-du-pont-sells-remington-gun-maker.html |archive-date=October 9, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191009163731/https://www.nytimes.com/1993/10/22/business/company-news-du-pont-sells-remington-gun-maker.html |url-status=live }} The Times, citing the National Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association said that "rifle and shotgun sales totaled $900 million" in 1992. Citing the National Shooting Sports Foundation president, the article said that since 1986, "interest in hunting" had "declined". The sale of long guns—which represented 75% of Remington sales had become "slack" by 1993, while the sale of handguns had become the "fastest-growing segment" of the gun industry.

In June 2007, a private equity firm, Cerberus Capital Management, acquired Remington Arms for $370 million, including $252 million in assumed debt. It became part of Cerberus' Freedom Group. Remington was millions of dollars in debt and did not report a profit from 2003 to 2005.{{Cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/06/business/06arms.html |work=The New York Times |title=Remington Arms Is Sold |date=April 6, 2007 |access-date=May 22, 2010 |archive-date=October 23, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111023045124/http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/06/business/06arms.html |url-status=live }} In 2015, the Freedom Group was renamed Remington Outdoor Company.

In December 2007, Remington Arms acquired rifle-maker Marlin Firearms.{{cite web |url=https://www.usatoday.com/money/industries/manufacturing/2007-12-27-remington-marlin-firearms_N.htm |title=Gunmaker Remington to buy Marlin Firearms |website=Usatoday.Com |date=December 27, 2007 |access-date=January 31, 2016 |archive-date=May 24, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110524032805/http://www.usatoday.com/money/industries/manufacturing/2007-12-27-remington-marlin-firearms_N.htm |url-status=live }} In 2009, ammunition sales continued to remain high despite the ongoing United States Ammunition Shortage during that time. Chief Executive Officer Ted Torbeck said that consumer concerns over future restrictions, and taxes on ammunition and firearms by the Obama administration, were creating a rise in demand.{{cite web

In 2009, Remington's former ammunition factory in Bridgeport, Connecticut, was investigated by the Travel Channel's Ghost Adventures. The site was eventually purchased by Peter DiNardo Enterprises Inc. and was scheduled for demolition.{{cite web |author=Keila Torres Ocasio |url=http://www.ctpost.com/local/article/RemGrit-buildings-set-to-fall-3451511.php |title=RemGrit buildings set to fall – Connecticut Post |website=Ctpost.com |date=April 1, 2012 |access-date=January 31, 2016 |archive-date=March 4, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304063822/http://www.ctpost.com/local/article/RemGrit-buildings-set-to-fall-3451511.php |url-status=live }}

After a 12-year absence from the handgun market, Remington announced the Remington 1911 R1 in 2010. It had previously ceased production of its last handgun, the Model XP-100R in 1998. Later in 2010, Remington introduced the Versa Max auto-loading shotgun. Its patented "Versa Port" system self-regulates gas pressure based on the length of the cartridge used, enabling the shotgun to shoot light {{cvt|2+3/4|in}} target loads, {{cvt|3|in}} hunting loads, and {{cvt|3+1/2|in}} magnum hunting loads.

In 2012, Remington won a US Army contract to manufacture 24,000 M4A1 carbines at $673 per unit worth $16,163,252 total.{{cite web|url=https://www.militarytimes.com/off-duty/gearscout/2012/04/21/u-s-army-places-order-for-24000-m4a1-carbines-with-remington/|title=U.S. Army places order for 24,000 M4A1 carbines with Remington|website=Military Times|date=April 21, 2012|access-date=July 28, 2020|archive-date=July 28, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200728211108/https://www.militarytimes.com/off-duty/gearscout/2012/04/21/u-s-army-places-order-for-24000-m4a1-carbines-with-remington/|url-status=live}}

On February 17, 2014, Remington announced a plan to build a new state-of-the-art plant in Huntsville, Alabama. Remington said it decided to move two production lines from the Ilion, New York, plant as a result of the fallout from the NY SAFE Act, which restricted gun ownership in response to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. AR-15 style semi-automatic rifles from Bushmaster, DPMS, and Remington (R-15) and 1911 style R-1 pistols were produced in the plant. The plant was touted by Alabama's Department of Commerce Secretary and by Remington as a boon to Alabama's economy.{{cite web |author=Lucy Berry |url=http://www.al.com/business/index.ssf/2014/02/reaction_new_remington_plant_2.html |title=Remington plant, 2,000 jobs in Huntsville will grow advanced manufacturing base in north Alabama |website=AL.com |date=February 17, 2014 |access-date=January 31, 2016 |archive-date=March 4, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304113349/http://www.al.com/business/index.ssf/2014/02/reaction_new_remington_plant_2.html |url-status=live }} The president of United Mine Workers Local 717, which represented workers at Ilion, expressed fears about the future of the New York facility and blamed the NY SAFE Act for the company's decision to favor Alabama over New York.Rick Moriarty, [http://www.syracuse.com/news/index.ssf/2014/02/remington_arms_expansion_in_alabama_not_good_for_ilion_plant_union_official.html Union official blames Remington Arms expansion in Alabama on NY SAFE Act], Syracuse.com (February 15, 2015).

The families of nine victims and a teacher who were shot and survived the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting with a Remington Bushmaster rifle filed a wrongful death lawsuit in Connecticut state court seeking a jury trial to recover unspecified damages. The case was briefly moved to federal court before being referred back to the state court level. In 2016, the suit was initially dismissed by a Connecticut Superior Court citing the immunity provided to firearms manufacturers by the federal Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA) of 2005. Remington's bankruptcy delayed the suit. On March 14, 2019, the Connecticut Supreme Court ruled, 4–3, that the suit's wrongful marketing claim could proceed to trial under Connecticut's Unfair Trade Practices Act (CUTPA) which addressed marketing including "truly unethical and irresponsible marketing practices promoting criminal conduct" and was not preempted by the PLCAA. The US Supreme Court declined to hear the case.{{cite news |title=Appeal Offers Hope for Newtown Families in Suit Against Gun Companies |newspaper=The New York Times |first1=Rick |last1=Rojas
