I bought my R51 in April 2020 with my stimulus check at Gibson's in Kerrville Tx. It was everything I wanted in a handgun especially since I always loved the Walthers. It fit my hand perfectly and I was ready to go. Then I started watching the videos. Some folks were brutal on it. I'm glad I bought it first. I've only been to the range twice and will go for my ccw later this month. I have only had minor snags and have shot around 300 rounds. I happened on this page the other day while researching the magazine issue. I have already learned lots here. I am glad to find a group who loves the gun and want to pass on what they have learned. Got a pair of wood grips off Ebay and really love them. Highly recommend.
Welcome... glad to hear you are enjoying your R51!... Joe
