Hello everyone,
New man here from southern Maine. I bought a new R51 at Cabelas on sale with a 10% & 5% discount as well. Hunting month and military discount. I am going to try to get out in the woods this coming week to try it out. It caught my eye in a Cabelas flyer earlier this month, I really like the look of the firearm. I have broken it down, and can say it is tough to get it back together the first few times. I do have to pull on the barrel during reassembly of slide to frame as I have seen mentioned.
I've used firearms since I was 22 years old, now I am 68. Not an expert by any means though.
Thanks.
