Anybody that bought one of these CT's from CDNN getting bombarded by emails from them? I think I get more than ones from Buds or RK. Looks like they really got some stuff and must be a pretty good sized outfit, prices seem good & I got one this morning that they still have the Lazer for 29.95 in todays add.

I'm in rural mid lower Michigan, also about 7 miles from nearby towns. Not as rural as 30 years ago or when I was young and came out to these parts from the metro Detroit area we lived in to chase Pheasants. However there are very few Pheasants anymore. Now I load up my Setters ad go north for Grouse.

Just checked CDNN its $29.99, even with $7.99 flat rate shipping its a good value. I already have one on one of my R-51's. I don't know if I will put it on my smokey but I'll have a spare.
I see I got an email from Buds and they have the R-51 with Crimson trace for $249.00.
They bill it as buy the Crimson Trace for $199.00 and get the R-51 for $50.00.

I wanted to get a couple myself, last time I checked he was out too. Hopefully he will let us know when he is going to have another run of them. He is a member here and usually does.

I was at my local RK store yesterday picking up farm supplies and they no longer have R51's in the display case.
Didn't get to talk to any sales guys they were too busy.
I just checked there website and they have them listed with CT for $399.00 but it says "factory ship" whatever that means.
Also I just bought another Desantis mini scabbard at holsters unlimited for $24.20 if anyone is interested. Now they have 4 left.

Keep looking for updates on the triggers but don't see any.
Any news or projected date ?

A sight pusher is used from my research. Google it or go search youtube.
Sight pushers are kind of expensive, I saw a cheap press from Harbor Freight used on one youtube video.
I got a set of fire sights a while back and haven't done anything with them at this point for fear of damaging my gun with the punch routine. Thought about getting a plastic/nylon or brass punch from Brownells but haven't yet.

I was at our local RK store last month after Zenshot posted they had R51's for $199.00 and indeed see them priced at that. Somehow I resisted as I was pressed for time.
Was there last Saturday 3/2/19 and saw them listed in their sale paper and they were $279.00.

Thanks
I have been on that site before but looked by gun/model and didn't see it.
They only show one I see at .130 tall is it .125 wide ramped serrated?

thanks

Thanks for the follow up. I may give this a try.
You  said you punched a new hole for the tension screw, looks like you moved it up a bit and the other hole is still covered as not to see. I will look into that.

......or so it seems to me. I cant find fiber optic sights or piece parts. Even the G10 grips I just received are gone. Bad timing...it seems the pistol is gaining popularity.

I just received a set of fiber optic sights for my second R51 this week.

I will keep an eye on this thread & wait for the offering.
Just ordered a set of fiber optic sights from Remington yesterday.
I wish someone would offer a shorter front sight to get back to where I normally aim though.

I got 2 for $29.18 in late November from Grabagun and they seem fine.
Just checked and they are $17.89 now and shipping is more. Took more than 3 weeks to get them though and that was ordered before the black Friday rush.

I'm with Gerry, 2 for me and about the same price range.

thanks

My R51 w/ Crimson Trace fits nicely, like a glove in my Desantis mini scabbard for the LC9 W/Crimson Trace its model LG412

I found this after reading this great old post has photos of both guns on top of each other
