Greeting all !

I just received my new R51 Gen 2 and took it to the range today for the first time.   Shot 100 rounds of Herters 115gr. FMJ with no malfunctions.   It went bang every time and seemed to shoot Point of Aim to Point of Impact quite well.   I purchased online from Tombstone Tactical with no hassle and free freight and they seemed to have the lowest price at $349, now priced at $342.   I also purchased a dozen extra mags. from CheapGunsOnline.com at a discounted price of $18.62 each (now at $18.28).   All mags worked fine.   Here's the link for the mags:

I have field stripped the R51 twice so far for initial cleaning and post range session cleaning.   I find it to be a bit of a challenge due to the strong action spring, however, it goes together easier by holding the barrel forward in the slide while putting the slide back on the frame.   

Thanks to all of you who have shared so much useful information about the R51.   It was very helpful as I made my decision to purchase the gun.

I hope to post updates as I get more range sessions with the R51.

Best,  ScooterZ
