Remington R51 part 2

[Harry Hood]

I see that Remington is rereleasing the R51 after a bit of trouble with the first incarnation. Wondered if we had any members who had purchased one on the first go round and if you have received your replacement. If so, how do you like it? Is it all it was cracked up to be on original release? Love to hear some real world opinions on this handgun.

I won't buy one after the issues with the first.

 

[Saltwater60]

Oh and it's ugly.

 

[Phazer]

I'm still intrigued by the Pedersen action.

 

[RandallOfLegend]

I like it. Might try to rent one (if I see it!). Not jumping out to get one though. They seem to be ammo sensitive with hollowpoints.

 

[Phauxtoe]

I like it!
but i will wait for GEN 3!

Boo.

After the first disaster, and Remington's reputation lately, I was out, and now I see that.

Boo.

 

[ECU Pirates]

Yeah.... No

 

[Phazer]

Based on those "real life" reviews, the pistol is not ready for prime time.

And most likely never will be with Remington involved.

 

[Darth]

Yeah.... No

What a disaster.

Even if it worked, what a disaster.

 

[togmaster]

Looks like a complete mess.

 

[Rethin]

and people complained the ccp was hard to take down.

Not at all surprising. That style action seems fit for an all steel gun like the original. This hybrid aluminum/steel doesn't seem to get along well. I'll pass.
