For anyone wondering about the status of Dakota arms, I stumbled on the following forum post:
Is Dakota Arms still in business?
Which led me to understand that Dakota Arms is essentially now Parkwest Arms and will be building the same rifles.
Parkwest Arms
I cannot verify this, but it is an interesting development.

I hope it does! I need more used models of the 76 Safari on the market so I can snag one for a sub $4.5k price...I wonder if they have ever sold as low as $3500...?
I’m not sure honestly. Personally I’ve seen some 375s around 4000-4500. But not lately

Your screen name is appropriate for my situation haha. I am a wishful thinker in this case. I guess I'll probably keep looking for a Kimber Caprivi or Model 70.

I wouldn’t mind having a Caprivi myself. I’ve never owned one but it seems like the majority of people that have love them

I saw that rifle on GB. How is this a Sendero? The Sendero was a heavy barreled aluminum block bedded action. That barrel didn’t seem to have a heavy contour.
Honestly I’m not sure. I don’t know much about Remington rifles. I just hate to see these manufacturers go away or get sold and restructured. I hope Parkwest Arms is successful with each brand and builds a quality firearm without changing things up too much.

I’m pretty sure that rifle is very overpriced compared to the old Remington prices but I like the Bell and Carlson stock on it. Maybe that feature will be standard
 
Hey, I'm new on here but I wanted to give you an update. Parkwest is in the process of fully opening and will be building the same models as the Dakota, but just under a new name. They are no longer owned by or affiliated with Remington. The website is in the process of getting up and running and they have a new number. 605-702-0060.
