Been away a while but had to jump in . All I know is that the name on the receiver of my M1917 is Eddystone not Remington. The rifles were built by employees not employed directly by Remington. If it was a separate company I really do not have any proof either way , maybe in a way like Pontiac was to General Motors. I am sure taxes and laws and most of all profit had some hand in it. But what Wardog76 really failed to mention is what else was manufactured in Eddystone PA .......and that was Jennifer Anniston ! I love my "EDDYSTONE" and I do not really care who or what was the overall hierarchy of production other than it's historical perspective.
