Hello from Ohio

[Jetfixer]

As my user name implies I am an aircraft mechanic, retired for almost 4 years now. I'm a long time handgun shooter, having purchased, with my parents permission a lightly used S&W K-22 when I was 14. It still resides in my gun safe but now has plenty of company of both the handgun and long gun variety.
I purchased my R51 about a year ago and it has become my edc. So far I've put around 500 rounds thru it with only a couple of hang ups that were confined to the first 50 rounds or so. After that it has run flawlessly and for me prints point of aim at 7-15 yards. I will say that field stripping/reassembly is no fun! Truthfully I haven't tried it with 7+1. I have the luxury of being able to safely shoot on my own property so will give that a try soon.
I am an Army Vietnam vet and would like to say "Thank You" to all veterans and active duty personal on here.

Welcome Jetfixer. Thank you for your service, keeping jets airworthy, and your input on the R51!... Joe

Best regards from this Army E-5 (1965-67). It just may take
an aircraft mechanic to work on the R51! But I like mine and
greatly benefitted from the information on this site and the
engineering guys who offer the tooling and triggers. Thanks!
Happy Thanksgiving to all.
