Have always been interested in mechanical devices from cars, motorcycles and watches to firearms.
When I saw the terrible reviews of the initial R51 I knew I had to get it!  I guess I have a soft spot for the underdog in my heart.
Just picked up my R51 last night its a GEN 2 Huntsville 2 tone. Looking forward to getting to the range with it.
Cheers

Welcome to the forum! This is the place to be for the R51 owner. I am very much like you as far as mechanical things are concerned. My attitude was, "there isn't a problem that can't be solved". So when I saw how poorly they were doing, I got one. Funny thing is, I have yet to have a malfunction. Now I need a smoke frame like you have to complete the collection. Best of luck at the range! Please report back!

Welcome from Texas!  It sounds like you will like this forum - a lot of gunsmith tinkering here.  Post a range report when you get a chance.  We are always interested in how each other's R51s are running.
