I'm a new guy and I have recently purchased the Gen 2 R-51.  Unfortunatly I started to have multiple problems right off the bat such as FTF, FTE, Rounds nose diving into the magazine all of which which I deemed unreliable.  I hope this forum will shed light onto some of the other problems that others are experencing and their remedies.

Kawa,
      Let us know when you have a problem, and we will  be glad to help.  Number one, do not try to rack the slide.   Lock it back, enter the loaded mag, pull back on the slide,
let it "slingshot" closed.  That is the biggest problem we had.  Other than that, if you have a problem describe it.
