EAA was and still is the importer of all Baikal firearms.
Remington did the distribution for only the last few years. Now Remington is no longer in the picture.

Distribution in the USA will be handled by a new entity (USSG) http://www.ussginc.com/ (site is under construction).

In response to these two posts ...
I sent some emails to European American Armory:

Since Remington has dropped the Baikal and Zastava firearms,
will EAA be picking-up the lines?

Response from EAA:

Yes sir.

Follow-up Question:

04/03/09 10:19 AM >>>

Is EAA actively seeking to regain the Izhmash contract form RAA?
And, if EAA does reacquire the Izhmash line will EAA attempt
to expand the model line-up to include the upper tier target rifles
or rifle models that are not being currently imported.

There is a market, albeit a small one, for the higher grade target rifles.
It would be wonderful if EAA could service this group of shooters
at least on a special order basis.

Response from EAA:

Sir,
Please visit our sister site @ www.ussginc.com ,
this is the Baikal line that we are still importing in.

I felt it was important to ask the follow-up question.
Perhaps, EAA is being coy with their non-response.
But, since EAA was the last importer of Izhmash firearms prior to RAA.
It maybe possible that EAA is interested in pursuing the Izhmash contract.
