Hello folks, been a while since I checked in. I now have about 800 rounds through my R51. Shoots well will a few FTF, but those are mostly reloads. Latest issue was that the firing pin would not reset. Took it to a local gunsmith who discovered that the disconnect was not being held in place. He made a new pin, longer so that it retains both the ejector and disconnect. All is well now. Read on the internet of this potential problem. Hope no one else has experienced this issue so consider it FYI.
Although I like shooting this weapon I am concerned with reliability as a CC. I have a S&W M&P Shield which has operated flawlessly. I 'm going to shoot some more rounds through it to see if the issues smooth out. One thing that I and the gunsmith noted was the lack of quality workmanship.
Well, need to go. Hope all is well with each of your. Be safe!
