Title: AT THE RANGE DAY 4 WITH NEW PISTOL....AND FOLLOW UP
Post by: Rocky150 on December 19, 2017, 03:40:07 PM
Picked up my new R51 last evening.  It is a Charlotte NC pistol.   Once home I field stripped 6 times, cleaned and oiled it for today.

I all cases, I am shooting 115 gr FMJ commercial relaods.


Results:  Huntsville AL Pistol.

Eight magazines, or 56 rounds .....4 from each mag .....   Perfect!!!!!!!    Everything functioned splendidly. Easy racking.

That brings the total rounds from this piece to 677.

Results:  Charlotte NC Pistol:

Unmodified Magazines.  Easy-ish racking.   They all racked but not as easily as the 2 older mags in the Huntsville pistol.

Twenty Two magazines or 154 rounds.   Eleven from each mag......Perfect.  Everything functioned splendidly.  OUT OF THE BOX!!!!

Now we are smokin"

Comments are replies??

Regards to all and Merry Christmas.

Rocky150,
