My opinion is that Remington clearly did not make enough Skeet guns…Appears that they made 1,089 over the span of 13 years, this averaged 84 guns a year. The VHE Skeet Guns that I have looked at are all very well made and extremely well balanced. "THEY DID TAKE THE HIGH ROAD" in workmanship and materials and had good advertising... The proof is in the pudding. NOT ENOUGH SKEET GUNS TO GO AROUND TODAY
