Didn't DuPont own Remington at one time? The layout of the facility reminded me of the Remington trap/skeet family place in Connecticut along Long Island Sound

Dupont owned Remington from around 1934 to 1993

Remington Gun club in Lordship(Stratford) CT is about a mile from my house in fact we drove around the property last week as it is now open to the public for walking trails and fishing at the mouth of the Housatonic River. The main clubhouse,armory and the target storage building are still standing. All the trap and skeet houses are now gone. I spent many a day shooting at that wonderful facility.

Next time I go there I will take some picture for you guy's.

In the Remington photo..if the upper left part of the photo is supposed to be water it would sure look like one of the trap fields on Stratford Point.
